Given:
annual dividend of $2 per share
9% return on your equity investment.

return on equity investment refers to annual dividends, so we simply divide the dividend by the percentage to get how much one has to pay for a share of stock.

2 / 0.09 = 22.22

You must pay $22.22 per share in order to earn 2, the 9% return on equity investment.
