Explanation & Answer

Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question! IF you have any clarification, please don't hesitate to ask and I will do my best to answer. ++++++++++++

Let X = the amount you are willing to pay for Alfa Growth, Inc. common stock now

($4.98 + $92.11 - X)/ X = 10.49%

$4.98 + $92.11 - X= 0.1049X

$97.09 - X= 0.1049X

1.1049X= $97.09

X = $97.09/ 1.1049

X = $87.87
