Problema Solution

Five years after paying $3100 for share in a startup company, you sell the shares for $2200 (at a loss).

Answer provided by our tutors

Initial Value = $3100

Final value = $ 2200 

 

Loss Percent =  ( (Final Value - Initial Value)  /  Initial Value )  * 100

=  (( 2200 - 3100 ) /  3100 )  * 100 

= ( 900 / 3100 ) * 100 =  29.03 %
