Answer:

6.2249%

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividend yield = next dividend paid / price of the stock

Dividend yield is one of the components used in calculating the total return of a stock.

Total return = price return + dividend yield

price return is the return on a stock as a result of price appreciation

Dividend yield = $3.10 / $49.80 = 0.062249 = 6.2249%
