1. Calculate the expected dividend next year:
D_1 = D_0 (1 + g) = 1.40 \times (1 + 0.06) = 1.484
2. Substitute the values into the formula:
P_0 = \frac{D_1}{r - g} = \frac{1.484}{0.12 - 0.06}
3. Calculate the price of the stock:
P_0 = \frac{1.484}{0.06} = 24.73
So, the current price of the stock is 24.73
