If u have a stock that you buy for .15 cents and you sell it at .19 cents what percent increase is that?

Question

how do u do that?

Answer 1

You made .04 cents it cost you .15 to do that so.

.04/.15=.266666.

Your return was 26.67%

Answer 2

It depends on how long you held the stock..most of the computations below are in the right direction but do not consider how long you held the stock..If you held if for one year their figures would be correct.. If two years the yield would be 1/2 of the figure they came up with..Im speaking of the 26.67 .. that is the yield for one year.. If you held the stock two years it would be approximately 1/2 of the 26.67

Answer 3

return = selling price / buying price

profit = 100 * (return - 1)

so:

19/15 = ~1.2667

profit = 26.67%

Answer 4

first u set it up. u do

difference/original price

so its .19-.15/.15

and u get .04/.15

and u get around .27.(rounded.)

Answer 5

Its 4% percent
