Question:
5. During the year, Toyota Motor Company shares went from 9,000 to 11,200, while paying a dividend of 60. At the same time, the exchange rate went from $1 = 145 to $1 = 120. What was the total dollar return, in percent, on Toyota stock for the year?
whereg = percent change in the dollar of the foreign currency
The total dollar return is
R$ = [1 + (11,200 - 9,000 + 60)/(9,000)] [1 + 0.2083]-1
R$= (1.2511) (1.2083) - 1=51.17%
why we do not use (120 - 145)/120 = -20.83% in this question?
