The expected price 5 years from now can be calculated using the dividend growth model. The formula for the price of a stock at time T (P_T) is given by: P_T = D_0 * (1 + g)^(T+1) / (r - g), where D_0 is the current dividend, g is the growth rate, r is the required rate of return, and T is the number of years in the future. However, since the current dividend (D_0) is not provided, we use the current price and the growth rate to find the future price directly: P_5 = P_0 * (1 + g)^5, where P_0 is the current price, and g is the growth rate. Plugging in the values: P_5 = $45 * (1 + 0.0375)^5 = $54.09.
