Stock price for each company in decimals
Alcoa_35 shares at 15 3/8 = 15.375
Coca Cola_150 shares at 24 5/8 = 24.625
IBM_80 shares at 40 11/16 = 40.6875
AT&T_50 shares at 35 1/8 = 35.125
Part(2) Solution:
Total value of all four companies = 15.375 + 24.625 + 40.6875 + 35.125
= 115.8125
Part(3) Solution:
Alcoa_35 shares at $34.19
Coca Cola_150 shares at $48.05
IBM_80 shares at $95.03
AT&T_50 shares at $38.88
Current Prices of the Stock = 34.19 + 48.05 + 95.03 + 38.88
= $216.15
According to current prices of the stock we should hold them because they are increasing value and it will be benefi
sing value and it will be benefit for us.
