Inorder to calculate the percentage , we can make it Y hence we will add amount in 2020 with Y% of (Net income - Dividend declared) inorder to arrive at the total amount in 2021.

Solution.

$150,650 + Y% (75,600 - $20,500) = $165,300

$150,650 + $55,100Y = $165,300

$55,100Y = $165,300 - $150,650

$55,100Y = $14,650

Y% = $14,650/$55,100

Y% = 0.26588

Y = 0.26588 × 100

Y = 26.59
