The total initial investment amount made by Ricky in XLNT
= Share Units*Initial Share Price
= 3,000*$7.10
= $21,300
2b) The exit fee if Ricky sells his total investment after 6 months = Share Units*Current Share Price*5% = (3,000*$8.86)*5% = $1,329 2c) The total pre-tax proceeds that Ricky will realise assuming the investment is sold after 6 months = Sales Revenue+Income Distribution-Initial Investment Amount-Exit Fee = (3,000*$8.86)+(3,000*$0.40)-$21,300-$1,329 = $26,580+$1,200-$21,300-$1,329 = $5151 2d)
The pre-tax annualised absolute return to Ricky assuming the investment is sold after 6 months
= [(market value at the end of the evaluation period- market value at the beginning of the evaluation period+Income distribution)]/Purchase Price*100
= [(3,000*$8.86)-(3,000*$7.10)+(3,000*$0.40)]/(3,000*$7.10)*100
= [($26,580-$21,300+$1,200)/$21,300]*100
= 30.42%
2e) Tax will Ricky be liable for upon the current sale of his total investment in XLNT
