Degger [83]

Answer:

Sustainable Growth Rate: 2.5%

Explanation:

Sustainable growth rate is calculated by multiplying return on equity with retention ratio.

Logic behind above is that whatever portion of net profit is retained by the Company, is used in the Company's operations, which earns certain percentage of equity known as return on equity. By multiplying both return on equity with retention ratio, we assume that the practice will continue for foreseeable future and the Company will continue to grow at the calculated growth rate.

Growth rate = Retention ratio * return on equity

Retention ratio = 50%

Return on equity = Net profit available for distribution / Opening equity

Return on Equity = (25,000 * 10%) / 50,000

Return on Equity = 5%

Growth Rate = 5% * 50%

Growth Rate = 2.5%

Papessa [141]

Solution:

Pick some smart number for x,

let x=2 (I chose x=2 as in this case monthly shipments would be X/2=1).

From January to April, inclusive 4x=8 brooms were produced and

in May the company paid for storage of 8-1 =7 brooms,

in next month for storage of 6 and so on.

So the total storage cost would be:

= 1 ∗ (7+6+5+4+3+2+1+0)

= 28

--> as x=2 , then 28 = 14x

So the answer is 14x
