Question:

Burnaby Packers is considering three independent projects, each of which requires a $3 million investment. These projects have different levels of risk and therefore different costs of capital. Their projected IRRs and cost of capital are as follows:

Project A:  Cost of capital = 17%; IRR = 20%

Project B:  Cost of capital = 13%; IRR = 10%

Project C:  Cost of capital = 7%; IRR = 9%


The company's optimal capital structure calls for 35% debt and 65% common equity. The company expects to have net income of $4,750,000. If Burnaby bases its dividends on the residual model (all distributions are in the form of dividends), what will its payout ratio be?
