2 a. Use the data given to calculate annual returns for Goodman, Landry, and the Market Index, and then
calculate average returns over the five-year period. (Hint: Remember, returns are calculated by subtracting
the beginning price from the ending price to get the capital gain or loss, adding the dividend to the capital
5 gain or loss, and dividing the result by the beginning price. Assume that dividends are already included in the
index. Also, you cannot calculate the rate of return for 2015 because you do not have 2014 data.)
