    The price of this stock today is $4.275

    Explanation:

    The constant growth model of the DDM approach will be used to calculate the price of this stock today. However, as the dividends are falling by a consatnt percentage every year, the growth rate taken will be negative i. e. - 5%.

    The formula for the price of a stock using this model is,

    P0 = D0 * (1+g) / r - g

    Thus,

    P0 = 0.9 * (1 - 0.05) / 0.15 + 0.05

    P0 = $4.275
