Answer)

Calculation of Dividend yield on share

Dividend yield: It is the rate of return in the form of dividend on investment in a share at its current market price. Dividend yield is calculated by dividing the annual dividend per share by its current market price and is expressed in percentage.

Dividend yield = Annual Dividend per share/ Current market price of the share

                          = $ 0.80/ $ 26.00

                          = 3.077% or 3.08% (approximately)   

Thus the dividend yield of the share given in the question is 3.08%
