Answer:

Option D,50% is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Dividend payout ratio is an important financial measure which measures the ratio of company's dividends payment to net income of the company.

This implies the portion of income earned in a year given to shareholders as dividends while the remains is kept in the business as source of further growth.

Dividend payout ratio=dividends/net income=$100/$200=50%
