Answer:

Cost of common stock for Whitewall is 16.00%

Explanation:

Ke = D1 / Price +g

D1 = Ke (Price + g)

D1 = $1.60 * (1+0.02)

D1 = $1.60 * (1.02)

D1 = $1.632

Ke = D1 / Price +g

We solve for Current dividend to derive the Cost of common stick  

Ke = 1.632 / (11.66) + 2%

Ke =  1.632 / 11.66 + 0.02

Ke =  0.139966 + 0.02

Ke =  0.159966

Ke =  15.9966%

Ke =  16.00%
