    the stock price will be of 203.06 dollars

    Explanation:

    Price earning ratio: 22

    PE: price / earnings per share

    payout ratio: 466,668/864,200 = 0.54

    so: retention ratio: 0.46

    return on equity: 864,200 / 5,800,000 = 0.149 = 14.90%

    sustainable grow rate: return on equity x retention ratio

    0.149 x 0.46 = 0,06854‬

    The next-year income, will grow by 0.06854

    864,200 x 1.06854 = 923,432.268

    There is 100,000 shares outstanding so:

    EPS: 9.23 dollars

    Price/Earning ratio: 22 Therefore Price = 9.23 x 22 = 203.06 dollars
