B)   20.00%.

C)   25.00%.

D)   18.66%.

The correct answer was D)

Gross proceeds on the sale (USD) = (325.33 CY * 1,000 shares) / 8.2781 CY/USD = USD39,300.08

Cost of investment (USD) = (271.11 CY * 1,000 shares) / 8.2781 CY/USD = USD32,750.27

Gross capital gain (USD) = USD39,300.08 – USD32,750.26 = USD6,549.81

Net capital gain after tax = USD6,549.81 * (1 – 0.20) = USD5,239.85

CY dividend paid = 9.02 CY * 1000 = 9,020 CY

Dividend Paid (USD) = 9020 CY / 8.2781 CY/USD = USD1,089.62

Dividend received after withholding tax = USD1,089.62 * (1- 0.10) = USD980.66

U.S. Taxes on dividends = USD1,089.62 * 20% = USD217.92

Tax withheld available for tax credit = 9,020 * 10% = 902 CY

Tax credit in US dollars = 902 CY / 8.2781 CY/USD = USD 108.96

Total after-tax return = [(5,239.85 + 980.66) – 217.92 + 108.96] / 32,750.26 = 18.66%
