Suppose a stock had an initial price of $57 per share, paid a dividend of $1.1 per share during the year, and had an ending share price of $63. Compute the percentage total return.

Respuesta :

Answer:

12.46%

Explanation:

Data provided

Dividend income = $1.1

Ending share per price = $63

Initial price = $57

The computation of the percentage total return is shown below:-

Total return = (Dividend income + (Ending share per price - Initial price)) ÷ Initial price

= ($1.1 + ($63 - $57)) ÷ 57

= ($1.1 + $6) ÷ 57

= $7.1 ÷ 57

= 0.12456

or 12.46%
