Given,

N.V. of each share = ₹ 50

Sum invested = ₹ 20,000

No. of shares bought = Sum investedN.V. of each share=20,00050\dfrac{\text{Sum invested}}{\text{N.V. of each share}} = \dfrac{20,000}{50} = 400.

By formula,

Dividend = No. of shares × Dividend % × N.V.

= 400 × 5% × 50

= 400×5100×50400 \times \dfrac{5}{100} \times 50

= ₹ 1000.

Hence, Option 1 is the correct option.
