A year ago, the Really Big Growth Fund was being quoted at an NAV of $21.98 and an offer price of $22.90. Today, it's being quoted at $24.19 (NAV) and $25.20 (offer). What is the holding period return on this load fund, given that it was purchased a year ago and that its dividends and capital gains distributions over the year have totaled $1.63 per share? Assume that none of the dividends and capital gains distributions are reinvested into the fund. ( Hint: You, as an investor, buy fund shares at the offer price and sell at the NAV.)

    12.75%

    Explanation:

    Given that

    Net assets value = $24.19

    Dividend and capital gain distribution = $1.63

    Offer price = $22.90

    The computation of Holding period return is shown below:-

    = (Net assets value + Dividend and capital gain distribution - Offer price) : Offer price

    = ($24.19 + $1.63 - $22.90) : $22.90

    = $2.90 : $22.90

    = 12.75%

    So, for computing the holding period return we simply applied the above formula.
