Answer: 7.80%

Explanation:

At the end of 2016, Josh received a dividend of $1.37 and at the end of 2020, he received one of $1.85.

You can calculate the growth rate with the formula:

Dividend Growth Rate = (Dividend received at end of 2020/Dividend received at end of 2016) ^ (1/n) - 1

2016 to 2020 is 4 years.

Dividend growth rate = (1.85 / 1.37)¹/⁴ - 1

= 0.07798518

= 7.80%
