Explanation:

Calculation to determine how much will the customer receive in each dividend payment

First step is to calculate the ADR

ADR=$560,000 / $56

ADR= 10,000 ADR shares.

Note that U.S. market ADR will be either be 1/5th or $56 per U.S. ADR

Second step is to calculate the Semiannual annual dividend rate per ordinary share

Semiannual annual dividend rate per ordinary share =[(12 BP/2)*1/5th ADR worth ]*$1.40 exchange rate

Semiannual annual dividend rate per ordinary share =(6BP* *1/5th ADR worth)*$1.40 exchange rate

Semiannual annual dividend rate per ordinary share =$1.2per ADR share*$1.40 exchange rate

Semiannual annual dividend rate per ordinary share =$1.68

Now let calculate how much will the customer receive in each dividend payment

Dividend payment = $1.68 per ADR share x 10,000 shares

Dividend payment = $16,800

Therefore how much will the customer receive in each dividend payment is $16,800
