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%
