First we calculate the return on equity(ROE) based on the Du-pont equation

ROE =  Net profit margin * Total asset turnover * equity multiplier

Total asset turnover = 1/capital intensity =1/1.08

Equity multiplier = 1+ debt to equity = 1+ 0.54 = 1.54

net profit margin = 6.2% = 0.062

ROE = 0.062*1/1.08*1.54 = 0.0884 = 8.84%

Sustainable growth rate = ROE*(1- dividend payout)

Sustainable growth rate = 0.0884*(1-0.4)

Sustainable growth rate= 0.053 = 5.3%

Sustainable growth rate = 5.30%

astraxan [27]

Answer:

Sweetpea have a gain of $1,000

Explanation:

When the depreciable property is sold, then the gain or loss will be computed to the extent on the difference among the selling price and the adjusted basis.

So, the adjusted basis will be

= Cost of the basis - Depreciation

= $5,000 - $2,000

= $3.000

Therefore,

Gain or Loss = Selling Price - Adjusted basis

                     = $4,000 - $3,000

                     = $1,000

Hence, it is a gain of $1,000.
