Answer:
Option (C) is correct.
Explanation:
Return on the stock = (Dividend ÷ Investment) + (capital gain ÷ investment
)
= (Dividend ÷ Investment) + (Final price of the stock - initial price of the stock) ÷ Investment
10 = (1 ÷ 20) × 100 + ((final price - 20) ÷ 20) × 100
10 = 5 + 5 × ( final price - 20)
Final price = 21
Therefore, the stock price should increase by [(21 - 20) ÷ 20] × 100
= 5%
