The holding period return on a stock was 25%. Its beginning price was $25 and its cash dividend was $2.6. Its ending price must have been _________.
Ans 28.65
Po = | Purchase Price |
P1 = | Sale Price |
Total Return on Shares = | (Dividend + (P1 - P0)) |
25 * 25% = | ( 2.6 + P1 - 25) |
6.25 = | ( 2.6 + P1 - 25) |
6.25 = | P1 - 22.4 |
P1 = | 22.4 + 6.25 |
P1 = | 28.65 |
