Answer #1

Total return = Capital gain + Dividend income

Capital gain = (Selling price - Purchase price) * Number of shares - Total commission

Capital gain = (110 - 100) * 120 - (10 + 10)

Capital gain = 10 * 120 - 20

Capital gain = 1,180

Dividend income = Dividend per share * Number of shares * 4 quarters

Dividend income = 0.25 * 120 * 4

Dividend income = $120

Total return = Capital gain + Dividend income

Total return = 1,180 + 120

Total return = $1,300.00

Option A is correct
