Answer:

8.11%

Explanation:

Cullumber Cyclicals beta = 1 since its sensitive to macroeconomic information (the whole market) is 1.

cost of equity (Re) = risk free + (beta x market premium)

Re = 2.4% + (1 x 5.71%) = 2.4% + 5.71% = 8.11%

Since the beta is 1, this specific stock should perform exactly like the market.
