Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

18.24

Explanation:

Sustainable growth rate is the rate of growth a company can afford in the long term

sustainable growth rate = retention rate x ROE  

b = retention rate. It is the portion of earnings that is not paid out as dividends

Retention rate = 1 - payout ratio =

payout ratio = dividend / net income

retention rate = 1 - $44,640 / 72,000 = 0.38

Return on equity = net income / average total equity

= 72,000 / 150,000 = 0.48

g = 0.48 x 0.38 = 18.24%
