High flyer, inc., wishes to maintain a growth rate of 16 percent per year and a debt-equity ratio of 0.90. the profit margin is

Xelga [282]

Answer: The dividend payout ratio is 46.19%.

We follow these steps in order to arrive at the answer:

We begin with the DuPont identity of RoE.

DuPont Identity:

$RoE = Net Profit Margin * Asset Turnover Ratio * Equity Multiplier$

Now,

$Equity Multiplier = \frac{1}{Debt Ratio}$

And Debt Ratio is also expressed as:

$Debt Ratio = \frac{D/E}{1+D/E}$

where D/E represents the Debt-Equity Ratio.

Substituting the value of D/E ratio from the question in the debt ratio formula above we get,

$Debt Ratio = \frac{0.9}{1+0.9}$

$Debt Ratio = \frac{0.9}{1.9}$ ----(1)

Substituting (1) in the equity multiplier formula above we get,

$Equity Multiplier = \frac{1}{\frac{0.9}{1.9}}$

$Equity Multiplier = \frac{1.9}{0.9}$

Substituting Equity Multiplier from above and the relevant numbers from the question in the DuPont identity we get,

$RoE = 0.048 * 1.08 * \frac{1.9}{0.9}$

$RoE = 0.10944$

The relationship between RoE and earnings growth rate g is given by the following formula:

$RoE = \frac{g}{(1-p)}$ , where p is the dividend payout ratio.

Plugging in the values in the formula above we get,

$0.10944 = \frac{0.16}{(1-p)}$

$1-p = \frac{0.16}{0.10944}$

$1-p = 1.461988304$

p = 0.461988304 or 46.19%

You find a certain stock that had returns of 14 percent, −11 percent, 21 percent, and 22 percent for four of the last five years

sp2606 [1]

Answer and Explanation:

The calculations of the stock return for the missing year is shown below:

a. Let us assume the fifth year stock return be x

As we know that

Average rate of return = Total returns ÷ number of years

0.12 = (0.1 - 0.11 + 0.21 + 0.22 + x) ÷ 5

So after solving this, the x is 14%

b. Now the standard deviation of the stock return is presented in the excel spreadsheet

The standard deviation is 13.40%

Dangling modifiers attempt to give clarity to a sentence where the subject is not clear. Most of the time, sentences are corrected with dangling modifiers by adding the corresponding pronouns of the actions being committed. Dangling modifiers add clarity to messages mostly in business writing where being professional in all sense of the word is essential.
