Answer:


1503.7\\ dollars

Explanation:

The cost of purchasing 621 shares
= 621 * 30.60\\= 19002.6\\

Cost of selling 621 shares at
48\\ dollar each


621 * 36.23\\= 22498.83\\

Brokerage paid at the time of purchase and selling of shares


((19002.6)/(1000) + (22498.83)/(1000)) 48\\= (19 + 22.5) * 48\\= 1992\\

Net profit


22498.83 -19002.6 - 1992\\= 1503.7\\
