Answer:

Kendra sold 200 shares through her broker on June 8. The price per share was $22.10. The broker charged her a 0.5% commission on
KiRa [710]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

A. $4397.9

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

We are given that Kendra sold 200 shares and that the price per share was $22.1

<u>This means that:</u>

Total value = 200 * 22.1 = $4420

Now, we know that the broker charged 0.5% commission on the total value

<u>This means that:</u>

Broker's charge = 0.5% * 4420 = 0.005 * 4420 = $22.1

<u>Therefore,</u>

Kendra's return = Total value - broker's charge

Kendra's return = 4420 - 22.1 = $4397.9

Hope this helps :)
