Answer:

(a) 14%

(b) $24 per share

Explanation:

Given that,

Dividend paid per share = $3

Growth rate of dividend = 4%

(a) Expected rate of return:

= [D1 ÷ Price ] + g

= [3 ÷ 30 ] + 0.04

= 0.10 + 0.04

= 0.14 or 14%

Therefore, the expected rate of return is 14%.

(b) Stock price:

= D1 ÷ (cost - growth)

= 3 ÷ (0.165 - 0.04)

= 3 ÷ 0.125

= $24 per share

Therefore, the stock price is $24 per share.
