Answer:

16.3%

Explanation:

$40 was put at the beginning of the year for an investment

The investment grows by 5%

= 5/100

= 0.05

The dividend is $4.50

The first step is to calculate the dividend yield

= $4.50/40

= 0.1125

Therefore, the HPR can be calculated as follows

= 0.1125+0.05

= 0.163×100

= 16.3%

Hence the HPR was 16.3%
