Answer:

9.6845%

Explanation:

Market risk premium = Market return - Risk free rate

                             7.3 = 11.2 - Risk free rate

Risk free rate = 3.9%

(1) Use CAPM:

Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta × Market risk premium

                        = 3.9% + 1.06(7.3)

                        = 11.638%

(2) Use DDM :

Stock price = [Latest dividend × (1 + dividend growth rate)] ÷ (Cost of equity-dividend growth rate)

$17 = [0.92 (1 + 0.022)] ÷ (Cost of equity - 0.022)

Cost of equity = 7.731%

Cost of equity = average value from using DDM and CAPM

Cost of equity = 0.5 (7.731 + 11.638)

                        = 9.6845%
