Answer 1

To find the total profit or loss, we need to add up the individual profits and losses.

Loss on Monday = -$14
Profit on Tuesday = $18
Loss on Wednesday = -$6
Profit on Thursday = $7

Total profit or loss = (-$14) + $18 + (-$6) + $7
Total profit or loss = $5

Therefore, the total profit or loss is $5 profit.
