Answer:

$26.25

11.72%

Explanation:

Stock price next year = current price x ( 1 + growth rate)

$25 x (1.05) = $26.25

According to the constant growth dividend growth model :

P = D1 / ( r - g)

P = price of the stock

D1 = next dividend = current dividend x (1 +growth rate)

r = required rate of return

g = growth rate

$25 = $1.60 x ( 1.05) / r - 0.05

$25 = 1.68 / r - 0.05

$25 x ( r - 0.05) = 1.68

r = 0.1172

r = 11.72%
