Answer:

$46.67

Explanation:

Given the data from the question

We have

Earnings per share = $4

Growth rate = RoE * Plowback ratio

=> 20% * 0.30

=> Growth rate = 6%

Expected dividend per share(D1) = (1 - 30%) x $4 = $2.80

Current market price(Po) = D1/Ke - g

Current market price(Po) = $2.80 ÷ (0.12 - 0.06)

Po = $2.80 ÷ 0.06

Po = $46.67

Hence, in this case, the correct answer is $46.67 for the price of stock.
