ok here ya go.

market price = 150 x 2.5 = 375.
dividend = 0.1 x 150 = 15

dividend yield = dividend expressed as a percentage of the market price.

15/375 x 100 = 4%

this is how i worked it out, i may be wrong but

Thanks. q13 was da hardest question for me. i put 20%. i knew it was a percentage, i took a chance and chose the wrong answer out of two answers. Hopefully for some strange reason it becomes right.

market price = 150 x 2.5 = 375.
dividend = 0.1 x 150 = 15

dividend yield = (dividend / market price) x 100
15/375 x 100 = 4%

thats the right way... i asked my teacher how to do this last week now doesnt that just make ya happi

i was about to put the money in and then i remeber watching business sunday (day prior exam) talking about like 20% dividend yields, and i was like THANKYOU BRAIN

 

[wwjd_frog14]

yeh i think i put 4% 2....i remember seeing the formula n seeing the x 100/1 so yeh...thats how i got that

It's just the dividend over the current market price...

So .10/2.5. Blindingly simple if you know the formula. I'm lucky, I found it out literally five minutes before the exam.
