    I would be willing to $46.43 for the company's share today.

    Explanation:

    The price of the share today can be deduced from the below formula:

    Price of share = dividend / (rate of return-dividend growth rate)

    dividend is $1.95 per share currently

    rate of return required by investors investing in the share is 8.5%

    the dividend payment is expected to grow by 4.3%

    price of share today=$1.95 / (8.5%-4.3%)

    =$46.43

    The share today should priced at $46.43 as the price of share today is a function of dividends payable by the share in future and by also considering the rate of return expected by investors and dividend growth rate
