Question:
Need help finding the Dividend Payout and Growth Ratios for Target (TGT)
Internal growth rate = (ROA RR) / [1-(ROA RR)]
where RR = Retention ratio = (Addition to retained earnings)/Net income
-The internal growth rate measures the amount of growth a firm can sustain if it uses only internal financing (retained earnings) to increase assets
Sustainable growth rate = (ROE RR) / [1-(ROE RR)]
-If the firm uses retained earnings to support asset growth, the firm's capital structure will change over time, i.e., the share of equity will increase relative to debt
-To maintain the same capital structure managers must use both debt and equity financing to support asset growth
-The sustainable growth rate measures the amount of growth a firm can achieve using internal equity and maintaining a constant debt ratio
1. Calculate Targets internal growth rate for the last fiscal year:
= (ROA RR) / [1-(ROA RR)]
=
2. Calculate Targets sustainable growth rate for the last fiscal year:
= (ROE RR) / [1-(ROE RR)]
=
