Answer:

2. 7.1%

Explanation:

We use the formula to calculate the return of the Gordon Model:

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

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

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

Because the issue of new share has a flotation cost, it must be discount from the share price, giving us the final formula:

[tex]$Cost of Equity =\frac{D_1}{P(1-f)} +g[/tex]

D1 4.25

P 65

f $0.08

g 0 (there is no growth stimated so we assume zero)

[tex]$Cost of Equity =\frac{4.25}{65(1-0.08)} +0[/tex]

Ke 0.071070234

Ke = 7.1070% = 7.1%
