Correct Answer: Rs. 60.5, 4.55 %
Explanation:
Cost of shares = 44(25 + 5 + 1/4) = Rs. 1331
? Investment made = Rs. 1331
Now, face value of 1 share = Rs. 25
? Face value of 44 shares = Rs. (44 x 25) = Rs. 1100
Now, dividend on Rs. 100 = Rs. 11/2
? Dividend on Rs. 1100 = Rs. [(11/2) / 100] x 1100 = Rs. 60.50
Also, income on investment of Rs. 1331 = Rs. 60.50
? Income on investment of Rs. 100 = Rs. (60.50 / 1331) x 100 = 4.55%
Correct Answer: $ 1500

Correct Answer: $ 18543.60
Explanation:
Correct Answer: $ 5 Million
Explanation:
Correct Answer: $ 75000
Explanation:
Given :- Face value of each share = $ 20
Market value of a share = $ 25
Number of shares = 12500
? Market value of 12500 shares = Number of shares x Market value of a share
Market value of 12500 shares = $ (25 × 12500) = $ 312500
Thus, the amount required to purchase 12500 shares = $ 312500
Then, Mohan sells these shares at a premium of $ 11 each.
? New market rate per shares = Face value of each share + premium
New market rate per shares = $ (20 + 11) = $ 31
? Selling price of these shares = New market rate per shares x Number of shares
Selling price of these shares = $ (31 × 12500) = $ 387500
? Gain = S.P. - C.P. = $ (387500 - 312500) = $ 75000.
