From the following stock quotation, what is BLT's dividend yield? 
BLT $ \quad$ 1.20 $ \quad$ 4.3 $ \quad$ 19 $ \quad$ 1667 $ \quad$ 29.50 $ \quad$ 29 $ \quad$ 29 $ \quad$ -.25

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The dividend yield can be calculated as follows:
Dividend Yield = (Annual Dividend Per Share / Stock Price) x 100
We are not given the annual dividend per share in the stock quotation, so we cannot use that formula. However, we do know that BLT pays a dividend since the last column has a negative number (-.25) indicating the dividend paid. To calculate the dividend yield we need to know the dividend per share and the stock price. Since we do not have the dividend per share, we cannot calculate the dividend yield. Therefore, the answer is C, none of the choices provide the correct information to calculate the dividend yield.
