Answer:
The answer is: the rate of return is 0.5%
Explanation:
First of all, we have to determine the total cash flow:
- cash flow 0 $37.92 + $0.46 = $38.38
- initial investment = $38.19
To determine the rate of return of this investment, we should:
rate of return = [(cash flow / initial investment) -1] x 100%
rate of return = [($38.38 / $38.19) - 1] x 100% = (1.005 - 1) x 100%
rate of return = 0.005 x 100% = 0.5%
Answer:
The percentage rate of return=0.5%
Explanation:
Initial value of shares when you bought the stock=100 shares each at $38.19
The total initial value of the shares=(100×38.19)=$3819
Total final value when you sold the stock= 100 shares each for $37.92+an annual dividend of $.46 a share for 1 year
(37.92×100)+(0.46×100)=$3838
Percentage rate of return=((Final value-Initial value)/(Initial value))×100
((3838-3819)/(3819))×100=(19/3819)×100=0.50%
