Cost of Equity
Radon Homes's current EPS is $7.80. It was $4.43 5 years ago. The company pays out 50% of its earnings as dividends, and the stock sells for $30.
a) growth in earnings, g = (D5 / D0)^(1/5) - 1 = (7.8 / 4.43)^(1/5) - 1 = 11.98%
b) D1 = D0 x (1 + g) = 3.90 x (1 + 11.98%) = $4.37
c) Cost of equity, rs = D1 / P + g = 4.37 / 30 + 11.98% = 26.54%
