isida 27.5 / original price = 1.15 27.5 / 1.15 = 23.91
Bibhu The maximum price you would pay for the stock today = Sum of ( present value of Dividend + present value of sale of stock)= 1.5/(1+.15) + 26/(1+.15)= 23.91 is the answer. 0.15 is 15% interest that you want to earn from market
jonnyp 26 plus 1.50/X =1.15
27.50/1.15=23.91
