Computation of the internal growth rate:-

Return on assets (ROA) = Net income / Total assets

= 10073 / 162,648

= 6.19%

Retention ratio = 1 - Dividend payout ratio

= 1 - 30%

= 70%

Internal growth rate = (ROA * Retention ratio) / (1 - (ROA * Retention ratio))

= (6.19% * 70%) / (1 - (6.19% * 70%))

= 4.34% / 95.66%

= 4.53% 

The firm can not grow at 5% because it is higher than the internal growth rate.
