a) Computation of Growth Rate:

Growth rate=ROE*Plowback ratio

= 0.12*0.50

= 0.06 or 6%

 

b) Computation of P/E Ratio:

Dividend payout ratio=1-Plowback ratio

= 1-0.5

= 50%

 

Hence expected dividend=(50%*EPS)

= 0.5*$6

= $3

 

Current price=D1/(Market capitalization-Growth rate)

=3/(0.11-0.06)

=$60

 

P/E Ratio = Market Price/EPS

=$60/$6

=10
