The government really just expected reduced highway fatalities.  Even though that it costs these multibillion dollar companies a little more to let their drivers rest, it sill makes the roads safe for all drivers.  Driving while tired is almost as bad as driving under the influence, so making sure that these truck drivers get sleep make sure everything is super safe for everyone.

Answer:

Return on investment=12.81%

Explanation:

<em>Return on investment for a stock comprises of the capitals and dividend earned on the stock.</em>

<em>The capital gain is the difference between he cost of the shares when it was bought and the value when it is sold.</em>

Capital gain = (24.50 -22)× 500= 1250

Dividend earned for a year = 0.32× 500 =160

Total return = 1250  + 160 =1,410

Total return = $1,410

Cost of the shares= 11,000

Return on investment = total return/cost of shares× 100

                                     =1,410 /11,000 ×  100= 12.81

Return on investment=12.81%
