A man invests a sum of money in ₹ 25 shares, paying 12% dividend and quoted at ₹ 36. If his annual income from these shares is ₹ 720, calculate :

(i) his total investment,

(ii) the number of shares bought by him,

(iii) the percentage return on his investment.

A man buys 250, ten-rupee shares each at ₹12.50. If the rate of dividend is 7%, find the :

(a) dividend he receives annually.
