Expert Solution

Given that initial investment in the stock is $200.

Annual dividends received= $7. So, for 3 years, total dividends received= 7*3= $21.

Final price for which the stock is sold is $190.

Holding period return can be calculated as: ((Final price+Dividends)/Initial Investment)-1

= ((190+21)/200)-1

= (211/200)-1

= 5.50% (Option A).
