Here
Dividend next year D1 = $1.26
share price P= $24.09
growth rate g= 2.6%
cost of equity r= ?
we will use dividend discount model to find out cost of equity
share price P = D1/(r-g)
24.09 = 1.26/(r-2.6%)
24.09*r-24.09*0.026 =1.26
24.09*r = 1.26+0.626
24.09r = 1.89
r= 0.0783
r = 7.83%
Hence cost of equity is 7.83% so last option is correct here.
Thanks
