Respuesta :

18.17% return the shareholders are expecting.

According to the constant dividend growth model

price = d1 / (r - g)

Next dividend to be paid=(0.44 x 1.1610)

Cost of equity= r

Growth rate=0.1610

24.67 = (0.44 x 1.1610) / (r - 0.1610)

24.67 x (r - 0.1610) = 0.51084

(r - 0.1610) = 0.02070

cost of equity, r= 0.2070+0.1610

cost of equity, r = 0.1817

                          = 18.17%

shareholders return expecting = 18.17%
