Answer:

a. 12.60%

Explanation:

The Eco Brothers Inc. cost of common can be determined through the following mentioned formula:

cost of common=Cost of debt+risk premium over cost of debt

In the given question

Cost of debt=8.75%

Risk premium over cost of debt=3.85%

Cost of common=8.75%+3.85%

                         =12.6%

So based on the above calculations, the answer is a. 12.60%
