    B. $2.37

    Explanation:

    The current dividend per share will be calculated using formula:

    Po = [Do (1 + g) ] / (r - g)

    Do = Po (r - g) / (1 + g)

    Po = Current Share price

    Do = Current dividend

    r = Rate of return

    g = growth of dividend

    Do = ($43.20 * (0.116 - 0.058) / 1.058

    Do = $2.37 per share
