Noah Morales · Answer 1

The cash flow to stockholders amounts to $45

Explanation:

Cash flow to stockholders is the term which is defined as the cash amount which the company pays out to the shareholders.

The cash flow to stockholders is computed as:

Cash flow to stockholders = Dividend paid - New equity raised

where

Dividend paid is computed as:

Dividend paid = Net Income * %

= $360 * 35%

= $126

New equity raised is $81

So, putting the values above:

Cash flow to stockholders = $126 - $81

Cash flow to stockholders = $45
