A man invested Rs. 4455 in Rs. 10 shares quoted at Rs. 8.25. If the rate of dividend be 12%, his annual income is:
Rs. 207.40
Rs. 534.60
Rs. 648
Rs. 655.60
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Number of shares = 4455 = 540.
8.25

Face value = Rs. (540 x 10) = Rs. 5400.

Annual income = Rs. 12 x 5400 = Rs. 648.
100

4455/8.25 = 5.4 then how 540 came there?

Annual income depends on face value only?

Someone is saying 4455 is market value and someone is saying it is face value. Can someone say if it is market or face value?

And in the last step, we know annual income = (dividend/market value *face value).

So then why we are putting 100 in place of market value?
