Mr. Michel invested Rs 52000 on Rs 100 shares at a discount of Rs 20 paying 8% dividend. At the end of one year he sells the shares at a premium of Rs 20. Find his annual dividend.
Rs 5200
Face value of one share = Rs 100
Market value of one share = 80% of Rs 100
= 80/100 × 100 = Rs 100
Investment = Rs 52000
Number of shares purchased = 52000/80 = 650
Total face value = Rs 650 × 100 = Rs 65000
Annual dividend = 8% of Rs 65000
= 8/100 × 65000 = Rs 5200.
