Answer:

Dividend yield= 2%

Capital gain = 1$

Explanation:

Capital gain is the difference between the cost of the shares when it was purchased and the price now

Capital gains = Price of the share now - cost of the shares

Capital gain = 101- 100 = 1

Capital gain = 1$

Dividend yield is the dividend earned as a proportion of the price of the share

Dividend yield = Dividend/ price × 100 =

Dividend = 2, Price = 101

Dividend yield = 2/101× 100 =  1.98

Dividend yield= 2%
