    The best estimate of the company's cost of equity is 10.26%.

    Explanation:

    Cost of Equity by CAPM : 0.034 + 1.05 (.07) = 0.1075 or 10.75%

    Cost of Equity by Dividend growth model:

    RE = (2.35) (1.041) / 43) + 0.041 = 0.0978 or 9.78%

    For our best estimate, we can take the average of both:

    (0.0978 + 0.1075) / 2 = 0.10265 = 10.26%.
