Answer:

Using Capital Asset Pricing Model

Ke= Rf +β(Market risk-premium)

Ke = 2.97 + 0.91(7.40)

Ke = 9.9%

Using Dividend Growth Model

Ke = Do<u>(1 + g) </u> + g

               Po

Ke = $3.69<u>(1 + 0.034)</u>  + 0.034

                    $69.57

Ke = $3.69<u>(1.034)</u> + 0.034

                  $69.57

Ke = 0.0548  + 0.034

Ke = 0.089 = 9%

The best estimate of the company's cost of equity is 9.9%

Explanation:

Cost of equity is a function of risk-free rate plus the product of beta and market risk-premium according to capital asset pricing model.

Using dividend growth model, cost of equity is a function of current dividend paid, subject to growth rate, divided by current market price plus growth rate.

maria [59]

Answer:

Depreciation and amortization = $10,500,000

Explanation:

EBT = Net Income / (1 - Tax rate)

EBT = 2,600,000 / (1 - 0.35)

EBT = $4,000,000

EBIT = EBT + Interest

EBIT = $4,000,000 + $2,000,000

EBIT = $6,000,000

EBIT = EBITDA - Depreciation and amortization

$16,500,000 = $6,000,000 - Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization = $16,500,000 - $6,000,000

Depreciation and amortization = $10,500,000
