    Security Market Line 16%

    Dividend Growth Model 13.75%

    Explanation:

    Boilermaker Corp

    Security Market Line: Re = 4% + 0.8 (15%)

    =0.04+0.12

    = 16%

    Dividend Growth Model : Re = [1 (1.05) / 12.00] + 0.05

    =1 (0.0875) + 0.05

    =0.0875+0.05

    = 13.75%

    Therefore the company's cost of equity using the Security Market Line is 16% and using the Dividend Growth Model is 13.75%
