Explanation / Answer

6)

Dividend per share Do = 7.47

Required return r= 16%

Price of the share after earnings report = Do/ r

                                                                                = 7.47/0.16

                                                                                =46.69

Purchase price =44.36

Total profit = (Latest price – purchase price) x no. of shares

                      = (46.69 -44.36) x774

                      =1,803.42
