Q1. Johnson Products earned $2.80 per share last year and paid a $1.25 per share dividend. If ROE was 14 percent, what is the sustainable growth rate?
Q2. Joker stock has a sustainable growth rate of 8 percent, ROE of 14 percent, and dividends per share of $1.65. If the P/E ratio is 19, what is the value of a share of stock?
Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR) = ROE * (1 - Dividend Payout ratio)
Dividend Payout Ratio = Dividend per share/Earningsper share
Q.1
By formula, SGR = 14% * (1 - 1.25/2.80) = 7.75%
Q.2
P/E = 19
Price per Share/Earning per Share = 19
E= P/19
Puting it in SGR formula,
P = $73.15
