The total return from the stock investment can be calculated by adding the capital gains and the dividends received. Capital gains are calculated as (Sale Price - Purchase Price) * Number of Shares. Dividends are calculated as Dividend Per Share * Number of Shares.Capital gains = ($14.80 - $9.20) * 100 = $5.60 * 100 = $560Dividends = $2.72 * 100 = $272Total return = Capital gains + Dividends = $560 + $272 = $832
