Answer:

$69.41

Explanation:

Given that

D1 = 4.75

D2 = 5.25

D3 = 5.75

D4 = 7

g = 7% or 0.07

R = 15% or 0.15

Therefore,

D5 = D4 (1 + g)

= 7 × 1.07

= 7.49

Also,

P4 = D5/g × R

= 7.49/0.15 × 0.07

= 93,625

Thus,

P0 = 4.75/1.15 + 5.25/(1.15)^2 + 5.75/(1.15)^3 + 7/(1.15)^4 + 93.625/(1.15)^4

= $ 69.41357

Approximately

= $ 69.41
