Fuzzy Button Clothing Company reported sales of $775,000 at the end of last year, but this year, sales are expected to grow by 8%. Fuzzy Button expects to maintain its current profit margin of 22% and dividend payout ratio of 25%.

A point at which the funds generated within the firm equal the demands for funds to finance the firm's future expected sales requirements. A shortage of internally generated funds that must be raised outside the company to finance the company's forecasted future growth. Because of its excess funds, Fuzzy Button Clothing Company is thinking about raising its dividend payout ratio to satisfy shareholders. Fuzzy Button could pay out of its earnings to shareholders without needing to raise any external capital.(Hint: What can Fuzzy Button increase its dividend payout ratio to before the AFN becomes positive?)
