Question #16 The Grist Mill Company provided the following financial information as of the calendar year 2019:
• Return on Equity of 14.6%
• Return on Assets of 7.8%
• Profit Margin of 8.1%
• Retention Ratio of 72%
Required: Calculate the Internal Growth Rate
Given in the question,
Return on Assets = 7.8% = 0.078
Retention Ratio = 72% = 0.72
Internal Growth Rate = Return on Assets X Retention Ratio
= 0.078 X 0.72 (Substituting the value from above)
= 0.05616
= 5.616% (Multiplying by 100 to convert to percent)
= 5.62% (Round off to 2 decimal place)
