QUESTION ONE
Mrs.Chausiku Mwendapole purchased share of ALI BABA for TZS 700 and received
a dividend per share of TZS 100 on 31st December 2020. Currently the share price is
worth TZS 800.
REQUIRED
Calculate the returns in TZS and percentage from the investment
“P1 = 700”; “P2 = 800”; “R = 100”
Let’s find the percentage change “Delta”
“% = (P2-P1)/P1”“Delta = (P2-P1)/P1 = 100/700= 0.1428”
Let’s the returns “ROI = R/P1 = 100/700 = 0.1428”
Answer: both ROI and the percentage change are 14.3%
