Answer 1

Answer:

B) 2328.50

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 200 shares at $11.58 per share. By multiplying the number 200 with each share value will get the cost of all shares.

Total shares = 200

Cost per share = $11.58

Cost of 200 shares: Total shares * cost per share

= 200 * 11.58 = 2316

Commission charged = $12.50

Total amount: Cost of 200 shares + Commission charged

                      = 2316 + 12.50

Total amount = 2328.50
