Answer:
9.51%
Explanation:
From the question above:
The dividend is $1.25
The growth rate is 4.7%
= 4.7/100
= 0.047
The stock price(PO) is $26.00
Therefore, stock's expected dividend for the coming year can be calculated as follows
PO= D1/Re-g
26= 1.25/(Re-0.047)
Cross multiply both sides
1.25= 26(Re-0.047)
1.25=26Re-1.222
1.25+1.222=26Re
2,472=26Re
Re= 2,472/26
Re= 0.0951×100
Re= 9.51%
Hence the stock's expected dividend for the coming year is 9.51%
