Solution

Face value of 1 share = Rs. 25
Dividend on 1 share = Rs. (9/100 * 25) = Rs. 9/4
Now Rs. 10 is an income on an investment of Rs. 100
Therefore Rs. 9/4 is an income on an investment of Rs. (100/10 * 9/4)
= Rs. 22.50
Hence, const of share = Rs. 22.50

value of each share = Rs.25

Dividend per share = 9% of 25 = 9×25/100=9/4

He needs to have an interest of 10% on his money

ie, Money Paid for a share×10/100=9/4

Money Paid for a share=9/4×100/10=22.5

ie, Market Value of the share = Rs.22.5
