Answer:

9.84%

Explanation:

The current risk free rate of return is 4.67%

The market risk premium is 6.63%

Burris company has a beta of 0.78

Therefore, using the capital assets pricing model the cost of equity can be calculated as follows

Cost of equity= Risk free rate+ Beta×Market risk premium

= 4.67%+5.171

= 9.84%

Hence Burris's cost of equity is 9.84%
