Answer:

The dividend payout ratios for each firm are 50%  and 72.22%

Explanation:

Dividend Payout Ratio Is the measure of the percantage of net income that is distributed to the shareholders in the form of dividends.  

Dividend Payout Ratio = Dividend paid/ Net Income

Stock A:

Dividend Payout Ratio = Dividend paid/ Net Income

                                      = 1.3/2.60  

                                       = 50%

Stock B:

Dividend Payout Ratio = Dividend paid/ Net Income

                                      = 1.3/1.8    

                                      = 72.22%

Therefore, The dividend payout ratios for each firm are 50%  and 72.22%
