Given data; Current price per share = $50 price per share after 3 years = $90 annual dividend = $ 4 Total dividend in 3 years = 4*3 = 12The formula for expected return in the investment is; expected return = D + P1 -P0P0 where; D = total dividend = $ 12 P1 = price per share after 3 years = $ 90 P0 = current price per share = $50 Inserting the values in formula, we have; expected return = 12 + 90 - 5050 expected return = 1.04 or 104% Therefore, the expected rate of return on the investment is 104%
