An investor purchased 300 units of a Mutual Fund at 12.25 per unit on 31st December, 2019. As on 31st December, 2020 he has received - 1.25 as dividend and - 1.00 as capital gains distribution per unit. Required: (i) The return on the investment if the NAV as on 31st December, 2020 is 13.00. (ii) The return on the investment as on 31st December, 2020 if all dividends and capital gains distributions are reinvested into additional units of the fund at 12.50 per unit.
Suggested Answer and Working Notes:
Return for the year (all changes on a per year basis) Particulars ₹/Unit Change in price (₹ 13.00 - 12.25) 0.75 Dividend received 1.25 Capital gain distribution 1.00 Total Return 3.00 Return on investment = (3.00 / 12.25) × 100 = 24.49% Alternatively, it can also be computed as follows: = ((NAV₁ - NAV₀) + D₁ + CG₁) / NAV₀ × 100 = ((13 - 12.25) + 1.25 + 1.00) / 12.25 × 100 = 24.49% If all dividends and capital gain are reinvested into additional units at 12.50 per unit the position would be. Total amount reinvested = 2.25 × 300 = 675 Additional units added = 675 / 12.50 = 54 units Value of 354 units as on 31-12-2020 = 4,602 Amount paid for 300 units on 31-12-2019 (300 × ₹ 12.25) = 3,675 Return = (4,602 -3,675) /3,675 = 927 / 3,675 = 25.22%
