Earning per share (EPS)= $17.15

Just paid dividend per share (DPS)= $2.45

Book value per share= $120.05


Payout ratio "= DPS\/EPS"

"=2.45\/17.15"

"=0.14"


Plow-back ratio = 1-Payout ratio

"=1-0.14"

"=0.86"


Sustainable growth rate= Plow-black ratio*(EPS/Book value per share)

"=0.86*(17.15\/120.05)"

"=\\boxed{12.28\\%}"

Sustainable growth rate 12.28%
