Last year Marla purchased 100 shares of stocks for $8 per share. She paid a flat $75 to purchase the shares. Since making her purchase, she has received $200 in dividends.

Swarn bought 200 shares of a stock for $36 per share. He paid $245 in trading commissions. He received dividends in the amounts of $98, $156, and $300 over the last three years, respectively. Assuming that Swarn is in the 15% marginal tax bracket for capital gains and dividends, what is his holding period return if he sells all of the shares at $40 each with a $245 trading commission? What is Swarn's tax-adjusted holding period rate of return?
For Marla,
Number of shares purchased is 100 @ $8 per share
Initial Position = 100 * 8 = $800
Dividends Received = $200
Brokerage Paid = 75 + 75 = $150
Current Value of Stock = $7
Current Position for 100 shares @ $7 per share
Current Position = $700
Holding Period Return = Profit/Initial Investment
Holding Period Return = ((700 - 800) - 150 + 200)/800
Holding Period Return = -6.25%
For Swarn,
Initial Position is for 200 shares @ $36 per share
Initial Position = $7200
Brokerage Paid = 245 + 245 = $490
Dividends Received = 98 + 156 + 300 = $554
Current Position = 200 * 40 = $8000
Capital Gain = $800
Tax on Dividends and Capital Gain = 0.15(800 + 554)
Tax = $203.1
Holding Period Return = (800 + 554 -203.1 - 490)/7200
Holding Period Return = 9.18%
