Explanation:

The Price of the stock is the present value using the expected rate of return of all the cash flows associated with the stock.

Use the following formula to calculate the expected rate of return

Expected rate of return = [ ( P1 - P0 ) + DPS1 ] / P0

Expected rate of return = [ ( $11 - $9 ) + $0.5 ] / $9

Expected rate of return = 0.278

Expected rate of return = 27.8%
