An investor purchased on margin Orange Computer for $30 a share. The stock's price subsequently increased to $47 a share at which time the investor sold the stock. The margin requirement is 60 percent and the interest rate on borrowed funds is 7 percent. What would have been the return if the investor had not bought the stock on margin

56.67%

Explanation:

Purchase cost = 30 dollars

Margin x price = 0.60x30 = $18

30-18 = $12

Profit = $47 - $30 - 0.07(12)

= 16.16

Percentage earned = (16.16 /18) * 100

= 89.78%

Profit from the trade

= 47-30

= 17

Percentage earned = 17/30 * 100

= 56.67%

The return would have been 56 67% if the investor had not done this.

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.
