Answer:

b.8.54%

Explanation:

Use Dividend Growth model to calculate the rate

Dividend =D1 = $1.03

Rate of return = k = 15%

Growth rate = g = 3%

Formula

Cost of Capital = D1 / k-g

Cost of Capital = 1.03 / 15%-3%

Cost of Capital = 1.03 / 12%

Cost of Capital = 8.58%

The closest answer is 8.54%, as no option matches with the answer.
