You put up $60 at the beginning of the year for an investment. The value of the investment grows TO $62.4 and you earn a dividend of $3.50. Your HPR was ____, capital gains yield was ____ and dividend yield was _____.
A. | 5.83%, 4%, 1.83% | |
B. | 11%, 5%, 6% | |
C. | 4%, 3%, 1% | |
D. | 9.83%, 4%, 5.83% | |
E. | 1.83%, 1%, 0.83% |
Capital appreciatio in a year on investment = value of investment the end - value of investment at the beginning
=62.4 - 60
= $ 2.4
Dvidend received during the year = $ 3.5
Holding period return = (Capital appreciation + Dividend income)/value of investment at the beginning
= (2.4 + 3.5)/60
= 5.9/60
= 9.83%
Capital gain yield = Capital appreciation/value of investment at the beginning
= 2.4/60
= 4%
Dividend yield = Dividend income / value of investment at the beginning
= 3.5/60
= 5.83%
option (d) should be the correct option.
