  1. Jatin invested $ 27260 in buying $ 100 shares of a company at $ 116 each. If the company paid 16% dividend at the end of the year, find his income from the dividend.
    1. $ 3560
    2. $ 2760
    3. $ 3760
    4. $ 3660
Correct Option: C

Given that :- Face value = $ 116 each
Total investment by Jatin = $ 27260

Number of shares purchased by Jatin = Total investment
Face value

Number of shares purchased by Jatin = 27260= 235.
116

Face value of 235 shares = $ (235 × 100) = $ 23500.
∴ Annual income from 235 shares = 16% x Face value of 235 shares
Annual income from 235 shares = 16% of $ 23500
Annual income from 235 shares = $16x 23500= $ 3760
100
