Answer:

59.09%

Explanation:

Dividend paid:

= Net income - (Weight of equity × Capital budget)

= 1,100,000 - (0.45 × 1,000,000)

= $650,000

Hence,

Dividend payout ratio = Dividend ÷ net income

                                     = $650,000 ÷ 1,100,000

                                     = 59.09%(Approx).(or 0.5909 approx).

Therefore, the dividend payout ratio is 59.09%.
