option (B) 1.72%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Number of shares owned = 400

Per share market value = $51.20

Market Value of stocks purchased = 400 * $51.20 = $20,480

Dividend income = $352

Now,

Dividend Yield = [ Dividend : Market Value of share ] * 100%

= [ $352 : $20,480 ] * 100%

= 0.0172 * 100%

= 1.72%

Hence,

The correct answer is option (B) 1.72%
