You are interested in determining the intrinsic value of Hoffman Inc. Your analysis shows that the firm’s growth rate will drop from its current pace by 20% each of the next two years, and then you estimate that dividends will continue to grow at the year 2 rate, with the same dividend policy in place, indefinitely.

a. During 2009, Gamma Corp had sales of $300 million, a net profit margin of 8% and a dividend payout ratio of 30%. At the end of the year, its total assets amounted to $500 million while its total debt was $200 million. Calculate Gamma's return on equity (ROE) and its sustainable growth rate (g*). Employ the DuPont system of financial ratios to arrive at your response. b. Suppose now that Gamma expects to maintain similar asset, sales and debt profiles but that, due to a cost savings initiative, the company expects to earn an additional $3 million in after tax income, all of which will be paid out in dividends. Recalculate Gamma's return on equity (ROE) and its sustainable growth rate (g*). Once again, employ the DuPont system of financial ratios to arrive at your response. How did your calculations differ in a. and b. and why?
