Answer: The net value of the investment in Flax at year end = $2,500

Explanation: Given from the question

Year 1     Number of shares Purchased (sold)           Price per share    

February 3,                 1,100                                            $11

April 15,                         2,500                                         $9

May 28,                         (750)                                         $13

July 5,                         1,400                                             $12

September 30,            (4,000)                                          #15

From the given values above, we can see that

Total number of shares purchased for the year 1 =  1,100 + 2500 +1400= $5000

Total number of shares sold for the year 1 = 4000 + 750 = $4,750

Share   Balance = $5000 - $4,750 = $ 250

but flax is trading at $10 per share

Therefore the amount of net value of investment = $250 x $10 = $2,500
