Answer:

ROI= -$200

Explanation:

Rate of return is also called return on investment. It measires the increase or decrease relative to initial cost of investment.

For example if $500 was invested in a business and eventually it brings in a profit of $20 the return on the initial investment will be the $20 profit. If however there is a loss it will result in a negative return on investment.

In this scenario the stock does not pay any dividends and initial cost was $1,200

To get the return on investment

ROI= Final investment amount - Initial investment amount

ROI= 1,000 - 1,200

ROI= -$200
