Suppose a stock had an initial price of $87 per share, paid a dividend of $2.15 per share during the year, and had an ending sha

djyliett [7]

Answer:

Percentage total return is 12.64%

Dividend yield is 2.19% or 2%

Explanation:

Computing the percentage total return by using the formula:

Percentage total return = Gain or loss / Initial price × 100

where

Gain or loss is determined as:

Gain or loss = Ending Share price - Initial price

= $98 - $87

= $11 (it is a gain)

Initial price is $87

Putting the values above:

Percentage total return = $11 / $87 × 100

= 12.64%

Computing the dividend yield by using the formula:

Dividend yield = Annual dividend per share / Stock's price per share

where

Annual dividend per share is $2.15

Stock's price per share is $98

Putting the values above:

Dividend yield = $2.15 / $98

= 2.19% or 2%
