It seems that you are looking for the yield of the shares of stocks after they were sold. To solve, yield =( current total amount- previous total amount) / previous amountwherecurrent amount = $9.9/share*700share+ $18previous=$9.29/share*700 share yield=[ (9.9*700)+18] -(9.29*700)/(9.29*700) x 100 yield= 6.8% Shares of stocks yield = 6.8%
Multiply the initial cost per share by the number of shares. Multiply the value of the shares when sold by the number of shares. Subtract the initial cost from the selling value. Subtract the two commissions from the increase in value. Divide the net increase in value by the original cost of the shares, and convert to a percent.
