In the first instance, the question is misspelled. It seems to be a product of the transcription of an image. By googling the text, you can find the images that are attached where the problem arises.

Taking into account the above, let's work on the problem found.

First of all, the implied earnings yield is given by:

[tex]E_{year} = \frac{(earnings-per-share)}{price-per-share}[/tex]

Replacing in equation:

[tex]E_{year}=\frac{7.82}{190.71}\\[/tex]

[tex]E_{year}=0.041\\[/tex]

which we can express in percentage terms as:

[tex]E_{year}=4.1 %\\[/tex]

So, the answer is the option 2=4.1%.

The earning yield made using the data given is the ratio of the change in the earning per share to the price per share which is 4.1%

The new earning per share = $7.82

Price per share = 190.71

Earning yield = Earning per share / Price per share

Earning yield = $7.82 / $190.71

Earning yield = 0.0410046

This could be expressed as a percentage = 0.041 × 100% = 4.1%

Therefore, the earning yield made is 4.1%
