Hampton Corporation has a beta of 1.3 and a marginal tax rate of 34%. The expected return on the market is 11% and the risk-free interest rate is 6%. Estimate the firm’s cost of internal equity.

12.5%

Explanation:

Given the following :

Beta (B) = 1.3

Marginal tax rate = 34%

Risk free interest rate = 6%

Market rate of return = 11%

The cost of equity is calculated using the relation:

Risk free rate of return + Beta(market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

Cost of equity = 6% + 1.3(11% - 6%)

Cost of equity = 6% + 1.3(5%)

Cost of equity = 6% + 6.5%

Cost of equity = 12.5%

Therefore, the firm's cost of internal equity is 12.5%

explanation:

hi : ) i found this so i hope this !

"we first find value of tax in dollars.

the difference between the two prices   is: 23. 54 - 22 = 1.54

therefore the sales tax in dollars is 1.54

the tax % will be   (amount of tax / original cost price ) × 100

(1.54 / 22) × 100  → (0.07) × 100 =   7

so the tax rate is 7%

we can double check the answer.

7 % of 22   → (7/100) × 22 → 0.07 × 22 = 1.54

22 + 1.54 = 23.54"
