The current price of the Volkswagen ADR (VWAGY) is 35.50. You purchase 50 shares on margin. You finance half of the purchase yourself and borrow the other half from your broker at an annual interest rate of 6.0%. Assume that the ADR pays an annual dividend of 0.56 per share. If the price in one year is 42, what is the return on your investment (keep in mind that you need to pay interest on the loan)

33.77%

Explanation:

In one year, you are going to receive ($42 x 100) + ($0.56 x 100) = $4,256

you must return ($35.50 x 50) = $1,775

plus interests = $1,775 x 6% = $106.50

total return = $4,256 - $1,775 - $106.50 = $2,374.50

you invested $1,775

return on your investment = ($2,374.50 / $1,775) - 1 = 33.77%
