Answer:

Dollar Return $2.79

$6417 as per investment in shares

Step-by-step explanation:

The return from an investment is the difference between value of stock when is was purchased to when it is sold plus any income received during the period

Dollar return will be divided into two

Capital gain which is the difference between purchasing price and selling price

Capital Gain = 30.07-28.08= 1.99

Income which is any income distributions made

Income = dividend Income = $0.80

Return = 1.99+0.8=$2.79

As per investment =2300*2.79 = $6417
