Can you explain in simple and detail on what is stock valuation?

So far I have these points taken down but don't know the meaning to it

The XYZ-stock trading at the Oslo Stock Exchange just paid a dividend of 2.15 per share. Based on the market price of risk, a required rate of return of 15% on the stock is appropriate. The next dividend payment on the XYZ-stock will take place in exactly one year. Currently, 10 million common shares are outstanding (issued and traded) in the XYZ-corporation. Among market analysts, there is substantial disagreement over the XYZ-stock’s future growth prospects. Your investment advisor believes that the stock could shortly trade substantially above its current level, pending favorable news regarding earnings per share (EPS).

(b) Assuming the XYZ-stock enjoys super-growth of 10% in dividends per share during the first five years and 4% in subsequent years thereafter; what market value per share is consistent with this scenario?

(c) Assume that the XYZ-stock with 50% probability will pay constant dividend, and with 50% probability the dividends will grow by 10%. What is a likely market value?
