Question

What am I doing wrong?


Melinda Randolph bought 1,500 shares of Huge Corporation stock for $155,250. She sold the stock for $101 per share and paid a sales commission of $39. What is the profit or loss from the sale?

Answer 1

I got this
1500*101-39=151461
155250-151461=3789 profit

Answer 2
