Answer:
$5
Explanation:
Data provided are as follows
Purchase price of stock one year ago = $27
Now stock price= $32
Total return percentage = 37%
So, The computation of the dollar amount of dividend is:
= Purchase price of stock one year ago × Total return percentage - difference in stock price
= $27 × 37% - $5
= $10 - $5
= $5
The difference would be
= $32 - $27
= $5
