Lane Industries is considering three independent projects, each of which requires a $2.4 million investment. The estimated internal rate of return (IRR) and cost of capital for these projects are presented here:

Project H (high risk):	Cost of capital = 15%	IRR = 17%
Project M (medium risk):	Cost of capital = 8%	IRR = 6%
Project L (low risk):	Cost of capital = 8%	IRR = 9%

Note that the projects' costs of capital vary because the projects have different levels of risk.

The company's optimal capital structure calls for 40% debt and 60% common equity, and it expects to have net income of $3,800,000.

If Lane establishes its dividends from the residual dividend model, what will be its payout ratio? Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
