Answer 1

Answer:

Return on investment = 18.07% (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

NUmber of share = 75 shares at $19.58 per share

Amount of dividend received = $73.42

Stock value at end = $22.14 per share

Find:

Return on investment

Computation:

Purchase price = 75 x 19.58

Purchase price = $1,468.5

Final value  + Dividend = 75(22.14) + 73.42

Final value  + Dividend = $1,733.92

Profit = $1,733.92 - $1,468.5

Profit = $265.42

Return on investment = [Profit / Initial value]100

Return on investment = [265.42 / 1,468.5]100

Return on investment = 18.07% (Approx.)
