Mathew had purchased 100 shares of Blue Corporation for $100 per share. Currently, the stocks of Blue Corporation are trading at $150. Which of the following is the return on Mathew’s investment on one share?
(A) 65%
(B) 50%
(C) 75%
(D) 80%
(E) 40%

Respuesta :

Answer:

B) 50%

Explanation:

Matthew's total return on investment = (current price - original purchase price) / original purchase price

= ($150 - $100) / $100 = $50 / $100 = 0.5 or 50%

To be able to determine the annual rate of return we would need to know when did Mathew purchase the shares.
