Sustainable growth rate
%
- Net Income = $11,802
Total Equity = $65,200
Return on Equity(ROE) = Net income/Total Equity
ROE = $11,802/$65,200
ROE = 18.10%
- Retention ratio(b) = 1 - Dividend Payout ratio = 1 - 0.44 = 56%
- Sustainable Growth Rate = (ROE*b)/1- (ROE*b)
Sustainable Growth Rate = (18.10%*0.56)/1 - (18.10%*0.56)
Sustainable Growth Rate = (10.136687%)/1 - (10.136687%)
Sustainable Growth Rate = 11.28%
