Pacific Packaging's ROE last year was only 5%; but its management has developed a new operating plan that calls for a debt-to-capital ratio of 60%, which will result in annual interest charges of $418,000. The firm has no plans to use preferred stock and total assets equal total invested capital. Management projects an EBIT of $979,000 on sales of $11,000,000, and it expects to have a total assets turnover ratio of 1.7. Under these conditions, the tax rate will be 30%. If the changes are made, what will be the company's return on equity? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.

It expects to incur BOTH fixed operating and financial costs; and the model projects Year 1 Sales of $650,000 (but team members think that Sales could be as low as $500,000 or as high as $900,000). The owners want to know what will happen to profits if the model Sales projection is incorrect. The primary concern is Sales less than $650,000 given the substantial fixed costs the model accepts.
