    Explanation:

    The computation of total percentage return is shown below:

    (Dividend per share + Capital gain per share) : Initial investment OR Purchase per share)

    Where

    Capital gain per share = (Sale price per share - Purchase price per share)

    = ($47.82 - $43.64 + $1.13) : $43.64)) * 100

    = $5.31 : $43.64 * 100

    = 0.121677 * 100

    = 12.17%
