    The equation: Sustainable Growth Rate = ROE x (1 - dividend-payout ratio); where ROE is Return on Equity

    ROE = Profit Margin (Net income/Sales) x Total Asset Turnover (Sales/Total Assets) x Equity Multiplier (Total Assets/Avg Stockholder's equity)

    Solution: Sustainable rate of growth=.07 x 1.6 x 1.6 x (1-.66) =

    0.1792 x 0.34=0.060928 or 6.0928%
