    One share of this stock worth today if the required rate of return is 7.4 percent is $ 3.24

    Explanation:

    According to the details the dividend for the next 2 years = $1.80 a share and the required return is=7.40%.

    Hence to calculate current price of stock we have to use the following formula:

    current price = present value of future cash flows

    current price=$1.80/1.074 + $1.80/1.074∧2

    current price = $ 3.24

    current price of stock is $ 3.24
