Answer: The large increase in free cash flow from 2018 to 2019 explains the large increase in 2019 dividends
Explanation:
Dividends are the rewards that are given to the shareholders of a company which can be in form of cash, stock etc.
The dividend for the company in 2018 was lower while the 2019 dividend was much higher. The reason for the large increase in the 2019 dividend is due to the increase in the free cash flow from 2018 to 2019.
It should be noted that free cash flow simply means the cash that remains when the company has paid for its expenditures. In this case, since the amount left is large, it also invariably resulted in a larger dividend in 2019.
