Cannizzaro Reaction: Yield Calculation of Alcohol/Acid

[Endlicheri]

Since there is 50% to produce either of the alcohol or carboxylic acid from 1mol of Aldehyde, does that mean when we calculate the %yield of either product we need to divide the mol of aldehyde by 2 since the ratio is 1 aldehyde to 1/2 of either product? Thanks!

If you write the balanced equation, you will have the answer you are looking for.
