Answer:

a. 10.93%

Explanation:

Cost of equity using CAPM formula is as follows;

CAPM ; r = risk free + beta (Market Risk Premium)

risk free (rRF)  = 4.10%

beta ; b = 1.30

Market Risk Premium (MRP) = 5.25%

CAPM r; = 4.10% + 1.30(5.25%)

CAPM r = 4.10% + 6.825%

= 10.925%

Therefore, to 2 decimal places, cost of equity is 10.93% making choice A correct.
