What would you consider an acceptable payout ratio and why? I've never kept it long term, just for a few months here and there, but I would like to add one or two to my portfolio.

It depends on the industry but no more than 100% regardless of the industry. Any company paying 100%+ is paying dividends out of capital and that's a no-no for me.

ETA: I just bought 1K shares of ETR (Entergy) at $67.26 for a yield of 4.94%.
