Answer:

Dividend yield= 3.53%

Explanation:

The dividend yield is the proportion of the market price that is earned as dividend. The higher the dividend yield the better for the investor.

The dividend yield is calculated as follows:

Dividend yield = Dividend paid /Current market price per share × 100

Dividend yield = 1.40/39.70× 100= 3.52

Dividend yield= 3.53%
