The price of a stock is $55 at the beginning of the year and $50 at the end of the year. If the stock paid a $3 dividend and inflation was 3%, what is the real holding-period return for the year? -3.64% -6.36% -6.44% -11.74%

Respuesta :

Answer:

Real holding period return = - 6.44% (Approx)

Explanation:

Holding period return = [Dividend + (Price of share ending - Price of share start)] / Price of share start

Holding period return = [3 + (50-55)] / 55

Holding period return = -2 / 55

Holding period return = -0.0363636

Real holding period return = [(1 + Holding period return)/(1 + Inflation)] - 1

Real holding period return = [(1 - 0.0363636)/(1+0.03)]-1

Real holding period return = - 0.06443

Real holding period return = - 6.44% (Approx)
