Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is 11.85%.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

Current price = $49.71

Dividend paid = $0.84

Growth rate = 10%

So, we can calculate the return by using following formula:

Return on stock = (Next year Dividend ÷ Current price ) + Growth rate

= ( $0.92 ÷ $49.71 ) + 0.10

= 11.85%
