Requirement 2: What is the expected capital gains Yield?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Dividend yield formula = Dividend / Price

Dividend = $2.80

Price = $49.20

Dividend yield = 2.80/49.20 = 0.0569

Dividend yield = 5.69%

Capital gains yield (CGY) = Next year's price-Current price / current price

Next year's price(P1) = 49.20*(1+0.0725)

P1 = $52.77

CGY = (52.77-49.20) / 49.20

CGY = 3.57/49.20

CGY = 0.0726

Therefore, capital gains yield = 7.26%
