Increased
It’s a positive number
Mike brought 100 shares costing $53 each.
Total costs of shares= 100*53
=$5300
He got dividends of $1.45 per share. A dividend is money that is earnt back from a share.
Total dividend amount = 1.45*100
=$145
I'm assuming that Mike sold his shares at the end of the year. He sells for $60 each.
Total sales amount=60*100
=$6000
The rate of return in this instance can be defined as the amount of money made back from a share.
Rate of return= total earnings/ costs
Total costs= $5300
Total earnings=$6145
6145/5300=1.1594
=15.9%
Hope this helps! :)
Answer: $126,000
Explanation: Shareholders equity can be defined as the total amount of investment done by the shareholders in the company. This investment can be done through various kinds of securities like common stock, preference shares.
As per this problem shareholder equity would be
= (no. of shares to be collected by warrant holders)*(price of each warrant)
and,
no. of shares to be collected = (1400 bonds) * (30 shares)
= 42,000 shares
.
therefore, equity :-
(42,000 shares) ( $3 ) = $126,000
