Answer:

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the following can be deduced:

The purchase price per share will be:

= $528,000/100,000

= $5.28

The selling price per share will be:

= $54,000/12,000 = $4.50

The loss on the sale of the marketable securities will then be:

= 12,000 x (4.50 - 5.28)

= 12,000 × 0.78

= $9,360
