The common equity section is comprised of 500,000 shares of common stock with a book value equal to $3 million and $1,485,000 of retained earnings. Next year, FD expects its sales will increase by 20 percent. The company's net profit margin is expected to remain at its current level, which is 16 percent of sales. FD plans to pay dividends equal to $0.60 per share. It also plans to issue 70,000 shares of new common stock, which will raise $460,000.
