What is the cost of equity finance for Hudaverdi Ltd? Give your answer as a percentage per annum to 1 decimal place.
Cost of equity = % pa
Answer : Cost of equity (ke) = 18.04%
Calculation :
Ke = (D1 / P ) + g
Where,
D1 = Expected dividend ( i.e. 0.96 + 4.6% = 1.00416 )
P = Current price of share (i.e. 7.47)
G = growth rate (i.e. 4.6% or 0.046)
Ke = ( 1.00416 / 7.47 ) + 0.046
= 0.134425702811 + 0.046
= 0.180425702811 or 18.04%
