Assuming  the required return is 12 percent, the stock price today is $40.61.

Given:

Dividend=$2.58 per share

Increase in Dividend=20% and 15%

Number of year=2 years

Increase in Annual Dividend=3.6%

Required return=12%

P2=Stock price today

Now let calculate the stock price today

P2 = [$2.58(1+0.20)]/(1+.12) + [$2.58(1+.20)(1+.15)]/(1+.12)^2 + {[$2.58(1+.20)(1+.15)(1+.036)]/(0.12 − 0.036)}/(1+.12)^2

P2 = [$2.58(1.20)]/1.12 + [$2.58(1.20)(1.15)]/1.12^2 + {[$2.58(1.20)(1.15)(1.036)]/(0.12 − 0.036)}/1.12^2

P2=($3.096/1.12)+ ($3.5604/1.2544)+ [($3.68857/0.084)/1.2544]

P2=$2.7643+$2.838329+($43.91155/1.2544)

P2=$2.7643+$2.838329+$35.0060

P2=$40.61

Inconclusion assuming the required return is 12 percent, the stock price today is $40.61.
