    12.53%

    Explanation:

    To find the market rate of return, we divide the expected dividend of the stock ($2.80) and divide it by the price of the share ($36.83), we then sum the result with the expected percentage increase of the dividend (4.9% or 0.049)

    2.8 / 36.83 + 0.049 = 0.1253

    = 12.53%
