    The price of the stock today is $43.90

    Explanation:

    The three stage gordon growth model will be used to calculate the stock price today as the dividend is increasing by two different rate for the next two years after which it will grow by constant rate for which we will calculate the terminal value at the end of the 2 years.

    The formula to calculate the price of such a stock is,

    P0 = [2.61 * (1+0.25) ] / (1+0.121) + [2.61 * (1+0.25) * (1+0.2) ] / (1+0.121) ² + [ (2.61 * (1+0.25) * (1+0.2) * (1+0.035)) / (0.121 - 0.035) ] / (1+0.121) ²

    P0 = $43.896 rounded off to $43.90
