AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

10.85 percent

Explanation:

Return on equity = 0.045 × 1.60 ×(1 + 0.60) = 0.1152

Sustainable growth = [0.1152 × (1 - 0.15)]/{1 - [.1152 × (1 - 0.15)]} = 10.85 percent

The sustainable growth rate is the rate of growth that a company can expect to see in the long term. Often referred to as G, the sustainable growth rate can be calculated by multiplying a company’s earnings retention rate by its return on equity. The growth rate can be calculated on a historical basis and averaged in order to determine the company’s average growth rate since its inception.

The sustainable growth rate is an indicator of what stage a company is in, during its life cycle. Understanding where a company is in its life cycle is important.

KiRa [710]

Answer:

1. Cost per unit = 860,500/45000 units = $19.12

2. Mark up = 12% * 800,000 = $96,000/45000 units = $2.13

mark up = 2.13/19.12 = 11.14%

3. Therefore selling price per unit = $19.12+$2.13 = $21.25

Explanation:

Variable direct materials cost per unit............................ 5.50

Variable direct labor cost per unit.................................... 7.65

Variable factory overhead cost per unit .........................2.25

Variable selling and administrative cost per unit........... .90

TOTAL VARIABLE COST PER UNIT..................................16.3

TOTAL VARIABLE COST = $16.3*45000 units = $733,500

Fixed factory overhead cost $82,000

Fixed selling and administrative costs 45,000

TOTAL COST = $ 860,500

1. Cost per unit = 860,500/45000 units = $19.12

2. Mark up = 12% * 800,000 = $96,000/45000 units = $2.13

mark up = 2.13/19.12 = 11.14%

3. Therefore selling price per unit = $19.12+$2.13 = $21.25
