Answer:

13.48%

Explanation:

Calculation for the required return for the company's stock using this formula

Required return = (D1/P0) +g

Let plug in the formula

Required return = [$1.12(1 + 0.115) / $62.91] + 0.115

Required return= [$1.12(1.115) / $62.91] + 0.115

Required return =(1.2488/$62.91)+0.115

Required return=0.019850580194+0.115

Required return = 0.1348 *100

Required return =13.48%

Therefore the required return for the company's stock will be 13.48
