Answer:

Followsare the solution to this question:

Explanation:

using formula:

[tex]\text{Recent dividend} = \text{Dividend of the previous year} \times (1+\text{growth rate})^{\text{(current year)}} \\\\\text{Total value = dividend + horizon value}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Horizon value}= \frac{\text{current year 3} \times \text{(1+long-term growth rate)}}{\text{(Long-run growth rate required)}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Reduced price factor}=(1 +\text{Required rate})^\text{corresponding time}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Value discounted} =\frac{ \text{total value}}{ \text{factor of discount}}[/tex]
