Explanation:

The price of a stock is the PV of the future dividends. This stock is paying four dividends, so the price of the stock is the PV of these dividends discounted at the required return. So, the price of the stock is:

P0 = $16.50 / 1.14 + $23.75 / 1.142 + $31.00 / 1.143 + $38.25 / 1.144

P0 = $76.32
