Answer:

 CurrentStock Value per Share (P0) = $6.25

Explanation:

Dividend growth rate (g) = 7% per year

Expected Dividend   (D1) = $0.50

Required return rate   (R) = 15%

           CurrentStock Value (P0) = D1 / (R-g)

                                            P0 = $0.50 / (0.15 – 0.07)

                                                 = $0.50 / 0.08

                                                = $6.25

                                CurrentStock Value per Share (P0) = $6.25
