Answer #1

return on portfolio = (ending value of portfolio - total amount invested) / total amount invested

ending value of each stock = number of shares * ending price

ending value of ABT = 200 * ($50 * (1 - 10%)) = $9,000

ending value of LOW = 200 * ($30 * (1 + 21%)) = $7,260

ending value of BLL = 100 * ($40 * (1 + 12.5%)) = $4,500

ending value of portfolio = $9,000 + $7,260 + $4,500 = $20,760

return on portfolio = ($20,760 - $20,000) / $20,000

return on portfolio = 3.8%
