(i) Use the dividend-growth model to estimate the value of each stock. Justify which (if any) should you buy.(ii) If you purchased Stock A, determine your implied rate of return.(iii) Determine the price that would be required to persuade you to purchase Stock A if your required rate of return were 10%.
