  We will give a new proof of a recent result of P.~Daskalopoulos, G.Huisken
and J.R.King ([DH] and reference [7] of [DH]) on the existence of self-similar
solution of the inverse mean curvature flow which is the graph of a radially
symmetric solution in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 2$, of the form $u(x,t)=e^{\lambda
t}f(e^{-\lambda t} x)$ for any constants $\lambda>\frac{1}{n-1}$ and $\mu<0$
such that $f(0)=\mu$. More precisely we will give a new proof of the existence
of a unique radially symmetric solution $f$ of the equation
$\mbox{div}\,\left(\frac{\nabla f}{\sqrt{1+|\nabla f|^2}}
\right)=\frac{1}{\lambda}\cdot\frac{\sqrt{1+|\nabla f|^2}}{x\cdot\nabla f-f}$
in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $f(0)=\mu$, for any $\lambda>\frac{1}{n-1}$ and $\mu<0$,
which satisfies $f_r(r)>0$, $f_{rr}(r)>0$ and $rf_r(r)>f(r)$ for all $r>0$. We
will also prove that $\lim_{r\to\infty}\frac{rf_r(r)}{f(r)}=\frac{\lambda
(n-1)}{\lambda (n-1)-1}$.
