    If the company follows the residual dividend policy, it is $50,000 in dividends.

    Explanation:

    Dividend is calculated by using the formula:

    Dividends = Net Income - Equity requirement

    where, Equity requirement = Capital budget (% Equity)

    = 500,000 (70%) = $350,000

    ∴ Dividends = 400,000 - 350,000

    = $50,000
