Answer: Jack Corp's D/E ratio is 0.67.

We follow these steps to arrive at the answer:

We begin with the DuPont Identity for Return on Equity (RoE)

RoE = Net Profit Margin * Asset turnover Ratio * Equity Multiplier

Substituting the values from the question in the DuPont identity we get,

0.1964 = 0.051 * 2.3 * Equity Multiplier

Equity Multiplier = \frac{0.1964}{0.051*2.3}

Equity Multiplier = 1.674339301


Equity Multiplier = \frac{Total Assets }{Equity}

So,

\frac{1}{Equity multiplier} =\frac{Equity}{Total Assets}

Substituting the value of equity multiplier in the formula above we get,

\frac{Equity}{Total Assets} = 0.597250509

Now,

\frac{Equity}{Total Assets} + \frac{Debt}{Total Assets} =1

So,

\frac{Debt }{Total Assets} = 1 - \frac{Equity}{Total Assets}

\frac{Debt }{Total Assets} = 1 - 0.597250509


\frac{Debt }{Total Assets} = 0.402749491


Now that we have the proportions of debt and equity to total assets, we can  find the Debt Equity (D/E) ratio as follows:

\frac{D}{E} = \frac{\frac{Debt}{Total Assets}}{\frac{Equity}{Total Assets}}

Substituting the values we get,

\frac{D}{E} = \frac{0.402749491
}{0.597250509
}

\frac{D}{E} = 0.674339301

The XYZ Corporation pays no cash dividends currently and is not expected to for the next five years. Its latest EPS was $18.00,
stellarik [79]

Answer:

current intrinsic value per stock = $26.35

Explanation:

year                      dividend              EPS

0                              0                       $18

1                               0                       $20.88

2                              0                       $24.22

3                              0                       $28.10

4                              0                       $32.59

5                              0                       $37.81

6                              $12.59              $41.97

growth rate up to year 5 = 16%

ROE growth rate starting year 6 = 11%

dividend growth rate starting year 6 = 11% x (1 - 30%) = 7.7%

cost of equity = 24%

horizon value at year 5 = $12.59 / (24% - 7.7%) = $77.24

current intrinsic value per stock = $77.24 / 1.24%⁵ = $26.35

Y<span>ou are not surprised when you find out your aunt is diagnosed with agoraphobia.
Agora in Greek basically means - a town square, a place where there are a lot of people. Phobia means fear. So if you connect those two words, you will get - a fear of crowded places, which is something that your aunt has if she cannot even leave her house because she is afraid of the outside world.
