    The current Dividend (D0) = $3.95

    Growth in dividend = $3.95 * (1+0.05) = $4.1475

    D1 = $4.1475 / (1+0.14) = $3.64

    D2 = $4.1475*1.05 / (1+0.14) ^2 = $3.64

    D3 = {$3.95 * (1+0.05) ^3} / (1+0.14) ^3 = $3.35

    D4 = {$3.95 * (1+0.05) ^4} / (1+0.12) ^4 = $3.09

    D5 = {$3.95 * (1+0.05) ^5} / (1+0.12) ^5 = $3.05

    D6 = {$3.95 * (1+0.05) ^6} / (1+0.12) ^6 = $2.86

    D7 = {$3.95 * (1+0.05) ^7} = $5.56

    P6 = $5.56 / (0.1 - 0.05) = $111.1609

    Present value of P6 = $111.1609 / (1.1) ^6 = $62.7475

    Current Price of the stock = $3.64 + $3.35 + $3.09 + $3.05 + $2.86 + $2.68 + $62.7475

    Current Price of the stock = $81.42
