price per share of the company's stock is $53.28

Explanation:

Under dividend growth model a stock is overvalued or undervalued assuming that the firm’s expected dividends grow at a value g forever, which is subtracted from the required rate of return or k.

Therefore, the stable dividend growth model formula calculates the fair value of the stock as P =D1 / ( k – g ).

P= price per share

D1 = current dividend

k = required return

g = growth rate

P= $3.41 ÷ (11 %  - 4.6% ) =( 3.41 ÷ 0.064 )=  $53.28

88 because 4 plus 4 equals 8. 40 plus 40 equals 80. 80 plus 8 equals 88
