If A7X Co. has an ROA of 13 percent and a payout ratio of 16 percent, what is its internal growth rate? |
Internal growth rate = (ROA * Retention ratio) / (1 - ROA * Retention ratio)
ROA = 13%
Retention ratio = 1 - Dividend payout ratio
= 1 - 16%
= 84%
Internal growth rate = (0.13 * 0.84)/(1 - 0.13*0.84)
= 12.26%
