The rate of return did an investor receive on the fund last year is : 8.87%.

Rate of return

Using this formula

Rate of return=(Dec fund's NAV -Jan fund's NAV +Income distribution+Capital gain distribution)/Jan fund's NAV

Let plug in the formula

Rate of return = ($23.15 - $23.00 + $.63 + $1.26)/$23.00

Rate of return =$2.04/$23.00×100

Rate of return = 8.87%

Therefore the rate of return did an investor receive on the fund last year is : 8.87%.
