Answer:

The cost of capital for the firm is 12.75%

Explanation:

from the CAMP model we can determinatethe rate as follow:

[tex]Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)[/tex]

risk free 0.044

premium market = (market rate - risk free) = 0.07

beta(non diversifiable risk) = 1.4

[tex]Ke= 0.044 + 1.4 (0.07)[/tex]

Ke 0.14200 = 14.2%

from the dividend grow model:

[tex]\frac{divends}{return-growth} = Intrinsic \: Value[/tex]

[tex]\frac{divends}{Price} = return-growth[/tex]

[tex]\frac{divends}{Price} + growth = return[/tex]

D0 = 1.60

D1 D0 x (1+g) 1.60 dollars x 1.06 = 1.696

P $ 32

g 0.06

[tex]$Cost of Equity =\frac{1.696}{32} +0.06[/tex]

Ke 0.113 = 11.3%

we can do an average betwene the two methods:

(14.2 + 11.3)/2 = 12.75
