Answer:

B. 30%

Explanation:

Initial value (Vi) = $120

Final value (Vf) = $150

Dividends paid (D) = $6

The holding period return is defined as the change in value during the year added to the dividends paid and then divided by the initial value:

[tex]HPR = \frac{D+(V_f-V_i)}{V_i} \\HPR = \frac{6+(150-120)}{120}\\HPR = 0.30\ or\ 30\%[/tex]

The stock's annualized holding period return is 30%.
