High Flyer, Inc., wishes to maintain a growth rate of 16.75 percent per year and a debt–equity ratio of 1.05. The profit margin

mylen [45]

Answer:

The dividend payout ratio is -48.12%

The Sustainable growth rate is 16.74%

Explanation:

In order to calculate the dividend payout ratio we would have to calculate the following formula:

growth rate=(ROE x dividend payout ratio ) / [ (1 - (ROE x dividend payout ratio))

To calcuate the ROE we would have to use the following formula:

ROE=Profit margin x Total asset turnover x Equity multiplier

ROE=0.045 x 1.05 x (1 + 1.05)

ROE=0.0968625

Therefore, dividend payout ratio would be calculated as follows:

0.1675 = (0.0968625 x dividend payout ratio) / [ 1 - (0.0968625 x dividend payout ratio))

0.1675 = 0.0968625 dividend payout ratio / (1 - 0.0968625 dividend payout ratio)

0.1675 - 0.016224469 dividend payout ratio = 0.0968625 dividend payout ratio

0.1675 = 0.113086969 dividend payout ratio

dividend payout ratio=1.481160928

Therefore, dividend payout ratio=1-1.481160928

dividend payout ratio=-48.12%

To calculate the Sustainable growth rate we would have to calcilate the following formula:

Sustainable growth rate=ROE*b/1-ROE*b

Sustainable growth rate=0.0968625*1.481160928/1-0.0968625*1.481160928

Sustainable growth rate=0.14346895/1-0.14346895

Sustainable growth rate=0.14346895/0.85653105

Sustainable growth rate=16.74%

Sweet Dreams sells 15,000 pillows per year for $25 per unit. Variable cost per unit is $14. Sweet Dreams wants to improve custom

Radda [10]

Answer: The answer is $27.25

Explanation:

Let x be the price Sweet dreams will charge to earn the profit of $75,000

New sales units = 20,000

New variable cost = $19

We know, Sales - Variable cost - Fixed cost = Profit

Now applying the equation,

20,000x - (20,000*19) - 90,000 = $75000

20,000x = $75,000 + 380,000 + 90,000

therefore, x = $27.25

So, Sweet Dreams will charge $27.25 to earn the same profit it is earning now i.e. $75000 per year.
