Answer:
The total investment will be "28".
Explanation:
The given values are:
Total dividend amount
= $85,000
Current earnings per share
= $2.10
Total purchased amount
= $85,000
Currently sell stock
= $45 per share
Now,
⇒  [tex]Dividend \ per \ share=\frac{85000}{5000}[/tex]
                   [tex]=17[/tex]
⇒  [tex]Total \ investment=currently \ sell \ stock+dividend \ per \ share[/tex]
                 [tex]=45+17[/tex]
                 [tex]=62[/tex]
The number of repurchased shares will be:
= Â [tex]\frac{total \ repurchase}{currently \ sells}[/tex]
= Â [tex]\frac{85000}{45}[/tex]
= Â [tex]1889[/tex]
So, Percentage of repurchased will be:
= Â [tex]\frac{1889}{5000}[/tex]
= Â [tex]37.78 \ percent[/tex]
When the share becomes bought, the overall investment value will be as follows:
= Â [tex]45\times ( 1 -0.3778)[/tex]
= [tex]45\times 0.6222[/tex]
= [tex]27.999 \ or \ 28[/tex]
