    Explanation:

    To find her rate of return we have to first determine the total gains on her investment, from which the total cost will be subtracted and then the rate of return can be calculated.

    Inflows

    Dividend = $0.5*300 shares = $150

    Sales ... = $33.75*300 shares = $10,125

    Total inflow ... = $10,275

    Outflow

    Purchase of shares = $31.25*300 shares = $9,375

    Returns = Inflow - Outflow = $10,275 - $9,375 = $900

    Rate of returns = 900/9,375 = 0.096 or 9.6%
