Answer:

Percentage of total return is -7.87

Dividend yield is 2.47%

Explanation:

Rate of return is the rate of income earned during the period in which the investment is held. It includes any income in the form of dividend and price difference.

Dividend received = $2.15

Price difference = Current price  - Initial Price = $78 - $87 = -9

Rate of return = ( ( Dividend received + Price change ) / Initial price ) x 100

Rate of return =  ( ( $2.15 + (-9) ) / 87 ) x 100

Rate of return  = ( -6.85 / $87 ) x 100

Rate of return = -7.87%

Dividend Yield = Dividend / Current Stock price = $2.15 / $87 = 0.0247 = 2.47%

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

b. A nonprice determinant of demand - Consumer income

C. A nonprice determinant of supply -  A change in technology

D. Mark-up pricing - Setting price equal to cost plus 20 percent

E. Positive relationship -  Price and quantity along the supply curve

F. Negative relationship -  Price and quantity along the demand curve

G. Inadequacy - Hunger

H Complementary goods - Shoes and shoelaces

Explanation:

Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good.

if the price of a good increases, the demand for the substitute increases and if the price of the good reduces, the demand for the substitute increases.

Complementary goods are goods that are consumed together

The demand curve is a curve that shows the relationship between price and quantity demanded. The demand curve is negatively sloped because the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded. This is in line with the law of demand.

Only a change in the price of a good leads to a movement along the demand curve of that good. Also, only a change in the price of the good would lead to an increase or decrease in the quantity demanded of that good.

Other factors other than the change in the price of the good would lead to a shift of the demand curve. Some of those factors include :

1. a change in consumers' expectation

2. a change in the taste of consumers

3. a change in income

There is a positive relationship between price and the quantity supplied. This accounts for why the supply curve is positively sloped.

A change in price of a good leads to a movement along the supply curve and not a shift of the supply curve.

Other factors other than a change in the price of the good would lead to a shift of the supply curve. Such factors include :  

1. A change in the price of input  

2. A change in the number of suppliers  

3. Government regulations  

4. Technological changes
