Quantitative Problem:
Barton Industries expects next year's annual dividend, D₁, to be $2.00 and it expects dividends to grow at a constant rate g = 4.9%. The firm's current common stock price, P₀, is $23.50.

Assume that the cost of equity calculated without the flotation adjustment is 12% and the cost of old common equity is 11.5%. What is the flotation cost adjustment that must be added to its cost of retained earnings? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
