Answer:

12.17%

Explanation:

The computation of total percentage return is shown below:

(Dividend per share + Capital gain per share ) ÷ Initial investment OR Purchase per share)

Where

Capital gain per share = (Sale price per share - Purchase price per share)

= ($47.82 - $43.64 + $1.13) ÷ $43.64)) × 100

= $5.31 ÷ $43.64 × 100

= 0.121677 × 100

= 12.17%
