This question is incomplete and I've read and answered the complete question and its ask to determine Mandy's gain or loss if she later sells the stock for $2.3 million.

In definition, a fair market value is the selling price of the item of which buyer and seller can agree, with that, if Mandy sold it for 2.3 million, the possible profit of it would be $100,000
