What is the expected return if a firm has a payout ratio of 0.4, a return on equity of 25%, and a dividend yield of 6%
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

21%

Explanation:

We can calculate the expected return of a firm by add dividend yield and growth rate but in this question, the growth rate is not given therefore we will find growth rate first with the available data

DATA

Payout ratio = 0.4

Return on equity = 25%

Dividend yield = 6%

Solution

Growth rate = Return on equity x retention ratio

Growth rate = Return on equity x (1 - payout ratio)

Growth rate = 25% x (1-0.4)

Growth rate = 25% x 0.6

Growth rate = 15%

Expected return = Dividend yield + growth rate

Expected return = 6% + 15%

Expected return = 21%

You can also offer an information session for first time buyers in your area, this will help to meet new people. Always reach out to expired real estate listings and see if they are interested inputting their home back on the market. Many real estate brokers will also sponsor a children's sport team, and at each game introduce yourself to the parents. It also crucial to keep in touch with all of your past clients, this helps build trust. You can send out holiday cards to members of the community to make people know that you do.
