Correct Answer: Rs. 8,580


Solution : Total investment = Rs. 44000
Ratio of investments = 1 : 4 : 5
Dividend of 10% on first share $= \frac{10}{100} \times \frac{1}{10}\times 44000 =$ Rs. 440
Dividend of 15% on second share $ = \frac{15}{100} \times \frac{4}{10}\times 44000 =$ Rs. 2,640
Dividend of 25% on third share $ = \frac{25}{100} \times \frac{5}{10}\times 44000 =$ Rs. 5,500
Total dividend income = 440 + 2,640 + 5,500 = Rs. 8,580
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 8,580.
