Solution

₹ 25 shares of a company are selling at ₹ 20. If the company is paying a dividend of 12%, then the rate of return is 15%.

Explanation:

F.V. of each share = ₹ 25

M.V. = ₹ 20

Rate of dividend = 12%

Dividend on each share = `(12)/(100) xx 25` = ₹ 3

Return on ₹ 20 = ₹ 3

And on ₹ 100 = ₹ `(3)/(20) xx 100` = 15%.
