Answer:

$2,550,000

Explanation:

When cumulative voting is used, you are generally assigned 1 vote per each stock that you own. In this case, since 5 seats are up for election, you will need at least 20% of the total stocks outstanding to be 100% sure that you will be elected to the board of directors.

250,000 x 20% x $51 = $2,550,000
