    The price of the stock today is $67.85

    Explanation:

    The company's dividends are growing in two stages. Thus, the two stage growth model of the DDM will be used to calculate the current share price. The first stage is of rapid growth in dividend at a rate of 20% and the second stage includes the constant growth. The formula to calculate the price of such a stock is,

    P0 or V0 = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r) ^2 + ... + [Dn * (1+g) / (r - g) ] / (1+r) ^n

    P0 = 2.2 * (1+0.2) / (1+0.1) + 2.2 * (1+0.2) ^2 / ((1+0.1) ^2 +

    2.2 * (1+0.2) ^3 / (1+0.2) ^3 + [{2.2 * (1+0.2) ^3 * (1+0.05) } / (0.1 - 0.05) ] / (1+0.1) ^3

    P0 = $67.85
