Rust Petroleum is expected to pay a $ 1.50 dividend at the end of the year. Rust Petroleum's dividend yield and capital gains yield both equal 6%.
Schubert Fabric's current stock price is $15 per share, its required return is 13%, and its dividend yield is 8%.

Please see the attached file:
Note: Required return = Dividend yield + Capital gains yield
Capital gains yield= Expected dividend growth rate (for constant growth model)
Expected Dividend (D1)= $1.20 (Given)
Current stock Price (P0)= $30.00 (see calculations below)
Required return (rs) = 11% (Given)
Expected Dividend growth rate (g)= 7% (Given)
Dividend yield (Dy) = 4% = 11%-7% ; required return = dividend yield + capital gains yield; therefore, dividend yield = required return - capital gains yield
Capital gains yield= 7% Capital gains yield= Expected dividend growth rate (for constant growth model)
Using the Dividend Discount (Constant Growth) Model
Po= D1/ (rs-g)
Dividend for next year= D1 = $1.20
