    The flotation costs are Option C) 17.96%

    Explanation:

    Consider the following equation

    Cost of common stock = (D1/Current price-flotation costs) + Growth rate

    = (4.25*1.085) / (55-6.25) + 0.085

    = (4.61125/48.75) + 0.085

    which is equal to

    =Flotations costs asre 17.96% (Approx).
