Braden's portfolio: Start date: September 1, 2022 Fixed investment: $⁢15,000 in a fixed deposit with a 6% annual interest rate over one year Variable investment: 120 shares of Stock D, purchased at $⁢80 per share, now valued at $⁢78 per share after one year On September 1, 2023, what is the current value of Braden's portfolio?

Answer
A
9 dollars comma 360
B
25 dollars comma 260
C
15 dollars comma 900
D
26 dollars comma 280

Explanation

The fixed deposit earns 6% of $15,000 over one year: $15,000 × 0.06 = $900, so its value is $15,900. The 120 shares are now worth 120 × $78 = $9,360. Adding the two investments gives $15,900 + $9,360 = $25,260, which is choice B.
