Currently digby is paying a dividend of $19. 67 (per share). if this dividend were raised by $3. 64, given its current stock price what would be the dividend yield?

Answer 1

Given its current stock price the dividend yield would be 42.39%.

Given,

Digby is paying a dividend of $19. 67 (per share)

Dividend were raised by $3. 64

Dividend yield = Dividend per share / Market price per share.

As there is no share price given, I shall assume that the share price is $100. The new share price will be:

= 100 * (1 + $3. 64)

= $464

The Dividend yield would then become:

= 19.67 / 464

= 42.39%

The dividend yield will be calculated on the basis of the dividend per share divided by the market price per share and this will be calculated on the basis of the percentage.
