Austin Manufacturing is considering three independent projects that each require an initial investment of $1.50 million. The estimated internal rate of return (IRR) and cost of capital for these projects are presented here:   Project 1:  cost of capital = 13%, IRR = 16% Project 2: cost of capital = 11%, IRR = 10% Project 3: cost of capital = 16%, IRR = 20%   Assume that Austin Manufacturing only pursues positive net present value projects. The company’s optimal capital structure calls for 45% equity.  Austin expects to have net income of $2,000,000.   a. If Austin establishes its dividend from the residual dividend model, what will be its payout ratio?   b. What would be the payout ratio if net income were only $1,250,000?
