Answer:

paid $.25 per share per quarter for the past year

Step-by-step explanation:

A stock is ownership rights purchased by investors in a public company. Holders of stock are called stockholders and they are regarded as owners of the company.

Stockholders are paid dividends. Dividends are a proportion of a company's profits paid to shareholders.

If the stock's dividend is $1, it means it either paid $1 the past year or paid $.25 per share per quarter for the past year
