(i)
Total investment = Rs. 45,000
Market value of 1 share = Rs. 125
∴ No of shares purchased = 45000/125 = 360 shares
Nominal value of 360 shares = Rs. 100 × 360 = Rs. 36,000
Let no. of shares sold = n
Then sale price of 1 share = Rs. 140
Total sale price of n shares = Rs. 8,400
Then n = 8,400/140 = 60 shares
The no. of shares he still holds = 360 – 60 = 300
(ii)
Nominal value of 300 shares = Rs. 100 × 300 = Rs. 30,000
Dividend% = 15%
Dividend = 15% of Rs. 30,000
= (15/100) × Rs.30,000 = Rs.4,500
