    The expected price after 1 year would be$55.5

    Explanation:

    According to the given data,

    Price of the stock (Po) = $50

    Dividend after 1year (D1) = $2

    Equity cost of capital (KE) = 15%

    The formula for calculating the price after 1 year i. e., (P1) is

    Po = (D1 + P1) / 1+KE $50 = ($2 + P1) / (1+0.15)

    P1 = [$50 (1.15) ] - $2 = $55.5
