Lana71 [14]

First we calculate the return on equity(ROE) based on the Du-pont equation

ROE =  Net profit margin * Total asset turnover * equity multiplier

Total asset turnover = 1/capital intensity =1/1.08

Equity multiplier = 1+ debt to equity = 1+ 0.54 = 1.54

net profit margin = 6.2% = 0.062

ROE = 0.062*1/1.08*1.54 = 0.0884 = 8.84%

Sustainable growth rate = ROE*(1- dividend payout)

Sustainable growth rate = 0.0884*(1-0.4)

Sustainable growth rate= 0.053 = 5.3%

Sustainable growth rate = 5.30%

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

EAW = -$17,545.71

Explanation:

initial investment = $200,000

cash inflows;

  • Year 1 = $33,000
  • Year 2 = $44,000
  • Year 3 = $55,000
  • Year 4 = $66,000
  • Year 5 = $77,000
  • Year 6 = $88,000
  • Year 7 = $99,000
  • Year 8 = $110,000
  • Year 9 = $132,000

cash outflows:

  • Year 1 = $20,000
  • Year 2 = $30,000
  • Year 3 = $40,000
  • Year 4 = $50,000
  • Year 5 = $60,000
  • Year 6 = $70,000
  • Year 7 = $80,000
  • Year 8 = $90,000
  • Year 9 = $100,000

EAW = equivalent annual worth = equivalent annual benefits - equivalent annual costs

to determine the EAB we must first find the PV of the cash inflows using a financial calculator = $408,348.84

EAB = (PV x r) / [1 - (1 + r)⁻ⁿ] = ($408,348.84 x 10%) / [1 - (1 + 10%)⁻⁹] = $70,905.91

to determine the EAC we must first find the PV of the cash outflows (including initial outlay) using a financial calculator = $509,395

EAC = (PV x r) / [1 - (1 + r)⁻ⁿ] = ($509,395 x 10%) / [1 - (1 + 10%)⁻⁹] = $88,451.62

EAW = $70,905.91 - $88,451.62 = -$17,545.71
