a. $120
b. $58
c. $40
d. $30
e. $20

Answer 1

Answer:

e. $20

Explanation:

The net asset value (N) for The New American Enterprise Mutual Fund's portfolio is given by the funds total value ($120,000,000) subtracted by its liabilities ($4,000,000)  and then divided by the number of shares issued (5,800,000) .

$N = \frac{\ 120,000,000-\ 4,000,000}{5,800,000} \\N=\ 20$

The fund's net asset value is $20
