a. The expected valuation for Urban Drapers stock today is $8.78 per share

b. The intrinsic value of SCI's shares is $33.76 per share.

Explanation:

a. Calculation of the expected valuation for Urban Drapers

Expected valuation for Urban Drapers stock today = Constant annual dividend per share /  Required rate of return = $2.24 / 25.50% = $8.78

Theerefore, the expected valuation for Urban Drapers stock today is $8.78 per share.

b. Calculation of the intrinsic value of SCI's shares

This can be calculated using the using the Gordon growth model (GGM) formula as follows:

P = D_1 / (r - g) (1)

Where,

P = current stock price = Intrinsic value of SCI's shares = ?

D_1 = Next dividend = D_0 * (100% + g)  = $2.64 * (100% + 5.50%) = $2.7852

r = required return = 13.75%, or 0.1375

g = Expected annual dividend growth rate = 5.50%, or 0.0550

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

P = $2.7852 / (0.1375 - 0.0550)

P = $33.76

Therefore, the intrinsic value of SCI's shares is $33.76 per share.
