Millers Hardware recently paid $1.21 per share in dividends. The company currently has excess cash and would like to distribute an additional $.35 a share to its shareholders. However, the company is concerned about increasing the dividend by that amount as it will not be able to afford a similar increase in the future and doesn't want to lower the dividend once it has been raised. Which one of the following is probably the best suggestion for distributing the $.35 per share?
