Q no. 9, exercise 3, ML Publication, share and dividends
Given, Investment = Rs.36,000
Face value = Rs.100
Premium – Rs.20,
D=15%
Market Value of one share = Rs.(100 + 20)
= Rs.120
No of shares = Investment /market value
= 36000/120=300
Yearly dividend = 15% of (100*300)
= RS 4500
% return =4500/36000*100 = 450/36
=12.5% = 13%
