We are asked to find the current value of a share with a constant dividend, therefore we will use the formula

\n

$\\displaystyle P_0=\\frac{D_0}{r_s}$

\n

In our situation we have, 

\n

$D_0=\\var{D}$, 

\n

$r_s=\\var{rr}\\%=\\var{rrdec}$,

\n

and therefore we have

\n

$\\displaystyle P_0=\\frac{\\var{D}}{\\var{rrdec}}$

\n

which upon calculation gives 

\n

$\\begin{align}P_0&=\\$\\var{Prounded}\\quad \\text{(to the nearest cent)}\\end{align}$
