Answers:    This follows the underlying dividend discount formula.

It states that the price today is the current dividend ($2) multiplied by the LT growth rate (15%), and then divided by the difference of the required return (19%) and the growth rate (15%).

So, Price = $2 (1.15) / (.19-.15) = $57.50...choice A.
