    Tweek's Coffee maximum new financing will be $342.86

    Explanation:

    First we need to find Retained Earnings.

    Retained Earnings = Net income x (1 - Dividend Payout)

    Retained Earnings = $400 Million x (1 - 40%)

    Retained Earnings = $240 Million

    New financing can be generated

    New financing = Retained earnings / Portion of equity

    Maximum new financing = $240 / 70%

    Maximum New financing = $342.86 Million
