At the beginning of the year, you bought 100 shares of microsoft common stock for $105, and over the course of the year, the company paid a dividend of $6 per share. at the end of the year, you sell your 100 shares for $95. the inflation rate for the year was 5%.

the nominal return on your investment was %.

the real return on your investment was %.

Nominal return  =  3.80 %

Real return = -1.2 %

Explanation:

given data

bought = 100 shares

common stock - $105

dividend = $6 per share

sell 100 shares =  $95

inflation rate = 5%

solution

we know Purchase cost  will be here

Purchase cost = 100 ×  $105

Purchase cost = $10,500

so Total dividend received is

Total dividend received = 100 × $6

Total dividend received = $600

and

Total sales receipt is = 100 × $95

Total sales receipt = $9500

so

Total earnings from shares = $9500 + $600

Total earnings from shares = $10,100

Loss from shares  is = Total earning from shares - Purchase cost

Loss from share = $10,500 - $10,100

Loss from share = $400

so

nominal return on investment is

Nominal return  = × 100

Nominal return  = × 100

Nominal return  =  3.80 %

and

real return on your investment

Real return = Nominal return - Inflation rate

Real return = 3.80 - 5.00

Real return = -1.2 %

balanced lifestyle would be the type of lifestyle that fulfill all aspects of our life, including financial security, personal achievements, emotional balance, and intimate relationships with other people.

for me personally, the job that i would choose to achieve a balanced lifestyle is opening an online store.

online store can be managed from the comfort of our phone. if we are the owner of the store, we can determine our own working hours. we can arrange our working hours so we have time to do things such as taking care of children, cultivating romantic relationship, or do our hobby.
