Answer:

The current dividend is $5.23 per share

Explanation:

This return is divided equally between dividend yield and capital gains yield, in other words 7%each (14%/2)

Expected return=current dividend*(1+growth rate)/share price +growth rate

note the growth rate also represents capital gains yield

0.14=CD*(1+0.07)/80+0.07

0.14-0.07=CD*(1.07)/80

0.07*80=CD*1.07

5.6=CD*1.07

CD=5.6/1.07

CD=$5.23

Ultimately the current dividend is $5,23 per share a shown by solving the equation for current dividend above

2 Jodi owns 112 shares of stock selling for $16.20. How many more shares can she purchase after receiving a dividend of $0.80 po
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The number of new shares = 6

Explanation:

Dividend is the proportion of profit paid by a company to its shareholder as a form of return on their investment. Another form of return on share investment is the capital gain; which is the difference between the selling price of a share now and its cost when it was purchased.

<em>For Jodi, we need to first calculate the amount of dividends earned on the total shares she owns. And then divide the result by the current purchase price of a share to arrive at the number of shares she can buy more.</em> This is done as follows:

Total dividends =  112× 0.80 = $89.6

Current price of a share = $16.20

THe number of shares that can be purchased= 89.6/16.20=5.5

The number of new shares = 6
