Answer:

13

Explanation:

Modified duration of stock = (1 + Growth rate) / (Effective rate - Growth rate)

Modified duration of stock = (1 + 4%) / (12% - 4%)

Modified duration of stock = (1 + 0.04) / 0.08

Modified duration of stock = 1.04 / 0.08

Modified duration of stock = 13

So, the modified duration of this share of the stock is 13.
