Andrew sold IBM stock to his sister Susan for $6,000. Andrew purchased the stock two years ago for $8,000. Susan sold the stock
klasskru [66]

Answer:

c. $1,300 gain

Explanation:

In this scenario, Susan recognized a $1,300 gain on this sale. This is because Susan originally purchased the stock for a total price of $6,000. When she sold the stock, she sold it for a higher price than what she originally paid for it therefore recognizing a gain. To calculate this gain we simply subtract her initial purchase price from her selling price of the stock which would give us a $1,300 gain.

$7,300 - $6,000 = $1,300
