Cost of debt is lowest because of tax benefit from it.
Answer:
66.67%
Explanation:
A firm has an EPS of $12
The dividend paid is $4
The first step is to calculate the payout
= 4/12
= 0.3333×100
= 33.33
Therefore the Plowback ratio can be calculated as follows
= 1-33.33%
= 0.667×100
= 66.67%
Hence the Plowback ratio is 66.67%
