The VSE Corporation currently pays no dividend because of depressed earnings. A recent change in management promises a brighter future. Investors expect VSE to pay a dividend of $0.5 next year (the end of year 1). This dividend is expected to increase to $1.25 the following year and to grow at a rate of 12 percent per annum for the following 2 years (years 3 and 4). Chuck Brown, a new investor, expects the price of the stock to increase 50 percent in value between now (time zero) and the end of year 3. If Brown plans to hold the stock for 2 years and requires a rate of return of 19 percent on his investment, what value would he place on the stock today? Use Table II to answer the question. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Metallica Bearings, Inc., is a young start-up company. No dividends will be paid
on the stock over the next 10 years because the firm needs to plow back its
earnings to fuel growth. The company will then pay a dividend of $13.50 per
share 11 years from today and will increase the dividend by 5.25 percent per
year thereafter.
If the required return on this stock is 13.25 percent, what is the current share
price? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2
decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
