    B) $1.98

    Explanation:

    Corporate tax = $4.50*35%

    = $1.575

    Personal tax = $2.00*20%

    = $0.40.

    Total amount of taxes = Corporate tax + Personal tax

    = $1.575 + $0.40

    = $1.98

    Therefore, The total amount of taxes paid if the company pays a $2.00 dividend is $1.98
