How much would the capital budget have to be cut


Walter Industries is a family owned concern. It has been using the residual dividend model, but family members who hold a majority of the stock want more cash dividends, even if that means a slower future growth rate. Neither the net income nor the capital structure will change during the coming year as a result of a dividend policy change to the indicated target payout ratio. By how much would the capital budget have to be cut to enable the firm to achieve the new target dividend payout ratio?
