Question

Abigail bought 28 shares of stock at $30.00 per share. She received dividends of $49.50 during the year. At the end of the year, her stock was valued at $43.50 per share. What was her ROI (Return on Investment)?

Answer 1

If her stock was valued at $43.50 per share. Her ROI is:50.89%

Step-by-step explanation:

First step

Purchase price=(28×$30)-(28×$43.50)

Purchase price= $840-$1218

Purchase price=$378

Gain in value=$378+ $49.50

Gain in value=$427.5

Second step

ROI=$427.5/$840×100

ROI=50.89%

Therefore the ROI is $15.89%.
