1). Computation of the common stock worth now:-

Common stock worth now = (Expected dividend + Expected share price)/(1 + Required rate of return)

= ($2.19 + $90.04) / (1 + 13.02%)

= $92.23 / (1 + 13.02%)

= $81.61

2). Please see the attachment:

 

3). Computation of the book value of an asset:-

Book value of asset = Asset cost - Accumulated depreciation

= $16,454 - $16,454 * (14.29% + 24.49% + 17.49% + 12.49% + 8.93% + 8.93%)

= $16,454 - $14,252.45

= $2,201.55
