Answer:

Po = D1        +     D2    +         D3

       (1 + Ke)     (1 + Ke)2   (1 + Ke)3                                                                                                                                          

Po = $12 +   $12.50 +      $28

     (1 + 0.1)    (1 + 0.1)2   (1 + 0.1)3

Po = $12 + $12.50 + $28

        1.1       (1.1)2        (1.1)3

Po = $10.91 + $10.33 + $21.04

Po = $42.28
