Answer:

(a) 0.04 or 4%

(b) 0.151 or 15.1%

Explanation:

(a) Cost of equity under DDM:

Re = (D1 + P) + g

where,

D1 = Dividend next year

P = Price of share

g =  Growth rate

Re = [(0.30 + 1.04) ÷ $77] + 0.04

     = 0.04

(b) cost of equity using the SML method:

Re = Rf + β (Rm - Rf)

    = 6% + 1.30(13% - 6%)

    = 0.06 + 1.30(0.07)

    = 0.151 or 15.1%
