Answer:

$\ 376.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  Geoffrey buys $\ 48$ shares of Deegan Pharmaceuticals at $\ 6.15$ each, and his broker charges him a commission of $\ 81$

To Find: How much did Geoffrey pay for his stock.

commision charged by broker $=\ 81$

Now,

                             $=48\times6.15$

                             $\ 295.2$

total cost of stock after adding broker commission

                             $295.2+81$

                             $\ 376.2$
