Answer:

Percentage total return is -12.89%

Dividend yield is 2.67%

Capital gains yield is -15.56%

Explanation:

Let us start with the dividend yield which is the dividend as a percentage of the initial stock price:

dividend yield=$2.40/$90=2.67%

Capital gains yield is the difference between the ending share price and the initial price divided by the initial price:

capital gains yield=($76-$90)/$90=-15.56%

Total return is the sum of dividend yield and capital gains yield:

total return =-15.56% +2.67%=-12.89%
