b) 15.62%
c) 4.44%
d) 12.88%

Respuesta :

Answer: 12.88%

Explanation:

The following information can.be inferred from the question:

Purchase price of share = $36.48

Dividend = $1.62

Selling price = $41.18

Capital gain = $41.18 - $36.48 = $4.70

Capital gain yield:

= Capital gain / Purchase price × 100

= (4.70 / 36.48) × 100

= 0.1288

= 12.88%
