2012 Calculations

1 Retention rate = (Net earnings attributable to Johnson & Johnson – Cash dividends paid) ÷ Net earnings attributable to Johnson & Johnson
= (10,853 – 6,614) ÷ 10,853 = 0.39

2 Profit margin = 100 × Net earnings attributable to Johnson & Johnson ÷ Sales to customers
= 100 × 10,853 ÷ 67,224 = 16.14%

3 Asset turnover = Sales to customers ÷ Total assets
= 67,224 ÷ 121,347 = 0.55

4 Financial leverage = Total assets ÷ Shareholders’ equity
= 121,347 ÷ 64,826 = 1.87

5 g = Retention rate × Profit margin × Asset turnover × Financial leverage
= 0.50 × 18.56% × 0.63 × 1.91 = 11.08%


FCFE growth rate (g) implied by single-stage model

g = 100 × (Equity market value0 × r – FCFE0) ÷ (Equity market value0 + FCFE0)
= 100 × (247,274 × 7.66% – 10,305) ÷ (247,274 + 10,305) = 3.35%

where:
Equity market value0 = current market value of 's common stock (USD $ in millions)
FCFE0 = last year 's free cash flow to equity (USD $ in millions)
r = required rate of return on 's common stock

1 g1 11.08%
2 g2 9.15%
3 g3 7.22%
4 g4 5.28%
5 and thereafter g5 3.35%

where:
g1 is implied by PRAT model
g5 is implied by single-stage model
g2, g3 and g4 are calculated using linear interpoltion between g1 and g5

Calculations

g2 = g1 + (g5g1) × (2 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 11.08% + (3.35% – 11.08%) × (2 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1) = 9.15%

g2 = g1 + (g5g1) × (3 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 11.08% + (3.35% – 11.08%) × (3 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1) = 7.22%

g2 = g1 + (g5g1) × (4 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= 11.08% + (3.35% – 11.08%) × (4 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1) = 5.28%
