Answer: c. capital loss.
Explanation:
A capital loss refers to a scenario where the price of a security falls below the price at which it was purchased. This is what happened to the Alpha Industries stock above as the price dropped from $39 to $37 which led to a capital loss of $2.

Explanation:
Tom is able to pay $390 per month for 7 years. The interest rate is 6.8 %. Tom will pay an equivalent of the present value of a $390 annuity for & years 6.8 per cent
The applicable formula is
PV = P × 1 − (1+r)−n
r
Where PV is the present value
P is 390
r is 6.8% per year or 0.005666
n is 7 year or 84 months
PV = $390 x 1-(1+0.005666)84
0.00566
PV = $390 x 1- 0. 622133410)
0.00566
PV =390 x (0.37786659/0.00566)
PV = $390 x 66.760
PV = $26,036.74
