Answer:

Rate = 9.05%

Explanation:

To calculate the Dividend per share we'll have to

= Total Dividends Paid / Total Shares

= 38,100/100,000

= 0.38  Dividend per share

So, if we are to be using the constant Growth Model,

[tex]P= \frac{D_{1}}{r-g}[/tex]

P = Price of Stock

[tex]D_{1}[/tex] = Estimated Dividends for next period

r = Required rate of return

g = Growth Rate

11.625 = 0.38(1.056)/(r - 0.056)

r = 9.05%
