Problem 4.14 (Return on Equity) Pacific Packaging's ROE last year was only 3%, but its management has developed a new operating plan that calls for a debt-to-capital ratio of 50%, which will result in annual interest charges of $864,000. The firm has no plans to use preferred stock and total assets equal total invested capital. Management projects an EBIT of $1,296,000 on sales of $18,000,000, and it expects to have a total assets turnover ratio of 3.9. Under these conditions, the tax rate will be 25%. If the changes are made, what will be the company's return on equity? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. %
