Answer:

18.24

Explanation:

Sustainable growth rate is the rate of growth a company can afford in the long term

sustainable growth rate = retention rate x ROE  

b = retention rate. It is the portion of earnings that is not paid out as dividends

Retention rate = 1 - payout ratio =

payout ratio = dividend / net income

retention rate = 1 - $44,640 / 72,000 = 0.38

Return on equity = net income / average total equity

= 72,000 / 150,000 = 0.48

g = 0.48 x 0.38 = 18.24%

gladu [14]

Answer:

23.08%

Explanation:

The computation of the debt ratio is shown below:

Debt amount

= 2 million × 0.90

= 1.80 million

And,

Equity amount

= 2 million × 3

= 6 million

Now

debt ratio = debt amount  ÷ (amount of debt + amount of equity)

= 1.80 million ÷ ( 6 million + 1.80 million)

= 23.08%

UNO [17]

Answer:

Annual demand (U) = 90.000 bags

Cost of each bag = $1.50

Inventory carrying cost per unit(C) = $1.50 × 20% = 0 30

Ordering cost per unit (O) = $15

Part A)

EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2UO}{C}}

EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2 * 90000 * 15}{0.30}}

EOQ = \sqrt{9000000}

EOQ = 3,000

Part B)

Maximum inventory = EOQ + Safety inventory on hand  

Maximum inventory = 3000 + 1000

Maximum inventory = 4.000

Part C)

Average inventory = Maximum inventory + Minimum or Safety /2

Average inventory = 4,000 + 1,000 / 2

Average inventory =2,500

Part D)

How often company order = Annual demand / EOQ

How often company order = 90,000 / 3.000

How often company order = 30
