Answer:

$3,621.96

Explanation:

ROE = Net income/Equity * 100

ROE = 5846/48860*100

ROE = 11.9648%

Dividend payout ratio = 35%

Retention Ratio = 1 - 35% = 65%

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

Sustainable growth rate = (11.9648%*0.65)/(1- (11.9648%*0.65%))

Sustainable growth rate = 8.43%

Therefore, Maximum Dollar Increase in sales = Sales * Sustainable growth rate = 42,950 * 8.43% = $3,621.96

sveticcg [70]
Let X be the time or period needed for an automobile center to finish an oil change.

X ∼ N (17, 2.5) 

a) 

P(X ≥ 20) = P((X - 17)/5 ≥ (20- 17)/2.5) = P(Z ≥ 1.2) = .1151 *100 = 11.51% is the answer

b) 
P(X ≥ x) = 0.07 

P (X - 17)/2.5 ≥ (x - 17)/2.5) = 0.07

P (Z ≥ z) = 0.07
look at the z table, 0.07 lies between 1.47 and 1.48, add and then divide you'll get:z = 1.475

1.475 = (x - 17)/2.5 

x = 20.6875 ≈ 21 minutes
