Question

As Bart Brownlee approached retirement, he decided the time had come to invest some of his nest egg in a conservative fund. He chose the Franklin Utilities Fund. If he invests $30,000 and the fund charges a load of 4.25 percent when shares are purchased, what is the amount of commission (load) Bart must pay?

Answer 1

$1,275

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the amount of commission for paying is shown below:

= Invested amount × fund charges a load percentage

= $30,000 × 4.25%

= $1,275

By multiplying the invested amount with the fund charges a load percentage we can easily calculate the amount of commission and the same is to be considered
