erastova [34]

Answer:

The internal growth rate is 4.36%

Explanation:

net income = 8.3%*386,400

= $32,071.20

net working capital = current assets – current liabilities

current assets – 37200 = 16700

= $53,900

total assets = current assets + net fixed assets

= 53,900 + 391,500

= 445,400

Then:

ROA = 53,900/445400

= 0.072005

b = 1 - 48% = 0.52

internal growth rate = 0.072005*0.52/1 - (0.072005*0.52)

= 0.041763/0.958237

= 4.36%
