Answer:

IGR = 9.1640%

Explanation:

[tex]IGR = \frac{ROA \times retention}{1-(ROA \times retention)}[/tex]

.45 dividend payout ratio

1 - .45 = .55 retention ratio

ROA = Return on Assets

[tex]\frac{Earning \: before\: interest\:and\: taxes}{Toal \: Assets}[/tex]

Income before taxes 6,200

Assets 11,820 + 28,800 = 40,620 Total Assets

ROA 6,200 / 40,620 = 0.15263417

[tex]IGR = \frac{ROA \times retention}{1-(ROA \times 0.retention)}[/tex]

[tex]IGR = \frac{0.15263471 \times .55}{1-(0.15263471 \times 0.55)}[/tex]

IGR = 0.09164031 = 9.1640%
