\n(i) the number of shares he buys;
\n(ii) the dividend he receives annually.
\nSolution:<\/strong><\/span>
\nNominal value of 1 share = \u20b9 24
\nMarket value of 1 share = \u20b9 24+ 12% of \u20b9 24
\n= \u20b9 24+ \u20b9 2.88= \u20b9 26.88
\nTotal investment = \u20b9 1,680
\n\u2234 No of shares purchased = \\(\\frac { 1680 }{ 26.88 }\\) = 62.5
\nNominal value of 62.5 shares = 62.5 x 24= \u20b9 1,500
\nDividend = 15% of \u20b9 1,500

\nBy purchasing \u20b9 25 gas shares for \u20b9 40 each, a man gets 4 percent profit on his investment. What rate percent is the company paying? What is his dividend if he buys 60 shares?
\nSolution:<\/strong><\/span>
\nNominal value of 1 share = \u20b9 25
\nMarket value of 1 share = \u20b9 40
\nProfit% on investment = 4%
\nThen profit on 1 share = 4% of \u20b9 40= \u20b9 1.60
\n\u2234 Dividend% = \\(\\frac { 1.60 }{ 25 }\\) \u00d7 100% = 6.4%
\nNo. of shares purchased= 60
\nThen dividend on 60 shares = 60 \u00d7 \u20b9 1.60 = \u20b9 96<\/p>\n

Question 3.<\/strong><\/span>
\nHundred rupee shares of a company are available in the market at a premium of \u20b9 20. Find the rate of dividend given by the company, when a man’s return on his investment is 15%.
\nSolution:<\/strong><\/span>
\nNominal value of 1 share = \u20b9 100
\nMarket value of 1 share = \u20b9 100 + \u20b9 20 = \u20b9 120
\nProfit% on investment of 1 share =15%
\nThen profit= 15% of \u20b9 120 = \u20b9 18
\n\u2234 Dividend% = \\(\\frac { 18 }{ 100 }\\) \u00d7 100% = 18%<\/p>\n

Question 4.<\/strong><\/span>
\n\u20b9 50 shares of a company are quoted at a discount of 10%. Find the rate of dividend given by the company, the return on the investment on these shares being 20 percent.
\nSolution:<\/strong><\/span>
\nNominal value of 1 share = \u20b9 50
\nMarket value of 1 share = \u20b9 50 – 10% of \u20b9 50
\n= \u20b9 50 – \u20b9 5 = \u20b9 45
\nProfit % on investment = 20%
\nThen profit on 1 share = 20% of \u20b9 45 = \u20b9 9
\n\u2234 Dividend% = \\(\\frac { 9 }{ 50 }\\) \u00d7 100% = 18%<\/p>\n

Question 5.<\/strong><\/span>
\nA company declares 8 percent dividend to the share holders. If a man receives \u20b9 2,840 as his dividend, find the nominal value of his shares.

\nHow much should a man invest in \u20b9 100 shares selling at \u20b9 110 to obtain an annual income of \u20b9 1,680, if the dividend declared is 12%?
\nSolution:<\/strong><\/span>
\nNominal value of 1 share = \u20b9 100
\nMarket value of 1 share = \u20b9 110
\nLet no. of shares purchased = n
\nThen nominal value of n shares = \u20b9 (100n)
\nDividend% = 12%
\nDividend = \u20b9 1,680

\nSolution:<\/strong><\/span>
\nNominal value of 1 share = \u20b9 60
\nMarket value of 1 share = \u20b9 60+ 25% of \u20b9 60
\n= \u20b9 60 + \u20b9 15 = \u20b9 75
\nLet no. of shares purchased = n

\n= \u20b9 20 – \u20b9 4 = \u20b9 16
\nNo. of shares purchased = 400
\nNominal value of 400 shares = 400 x 20 = \u20b9 8,000
\n(i) Market value of 400 shares = 400 x 16 = \u20b9 6,400

\nNominal value of 200 shares = \u20b9 100 \u00d7 200 = \u20b9 20,000
\nDividend% = 3%
\nDividend = 3% of \u20b9 20,000
