$8,400

Explanation:

XYZZ ADR = 10% XYZZ ordinary share

Current price of ordinary shares trade = 400 British pounds

Pounds rate against the dollar = $1.40

Annualized Dividend pay = 12 pounds paid semianually

Dividend to be received on the purchase of $560,000 worth of ADR

Therefore ;

To calculate worth of XYZZ ADR

Dollar value of £400

400 * 1.4 = $560

10% of $560 = 10* 560 = $56 per ADR

Therefore, semiannual Dividend payed :

£12 / 2 = £6 every 6 months ; which is equivalent to (£6 * 10%) = £0.6 per ADR

Equivalent dollar value :

0.6 * $1.4 = $0.84 per ADR

AMOUNT OF ORDER TO BE PLACED / price per ADR

$560,000 / $56 = 10,000 shares

Dollar value of Dividend payed per share = $0.84

Dividend customer will receive :

10,000 * $0.84 = $8,400
