Jeff Sellers bought 200 shares of radio shack stock at $22.35. eight months later,he sold the stock at $31.76.assuming a 2% commission charge, what is the bottom line for Jeff?
Answered by Ms. Sue
200 * 22.35 = 4,470

200 * 31.76 * 0.98 = 6,224.96

Subtract his purchase price from his sales price.

Answered by MAYBE THIS IS THE ANSWER
It's not clear from your question whether the commission is charged once or twice (at purchase and at sale). Assuming the latter (which is customary)...
Cost basis: (22.35 * 200) * 1.02 = $4,559.40
Sale proceeds: (31.76 * 200) * (1 - 0.02) = $6,224.96
Net profit: 6,224.96 - 4,559.40 = $1,665.56
8 month return: 1665.56 / 4559.40 = 36.53%
