Corporate Finance Question - Please show calculations so that I can learn how to arrive at the answers. Thank you.

GeoTech Company will be holding an IPO of two million shares tomorrow. Market expectations are high for this IPO. The company is expected to pay $1.00 per share starting one year from now. The dividends are then expected to grow at a supernormal rate of 25% for three years, before dropping down to 15% for three more years, and then to 7% afterwards. The 7% growth is then expected to continue for the foreseeable future. What is the gross dollar amount that will be raised from this IPO if the required return for similar issues is 16%? Hint: The first dividend is $1.00.
