Respuesta :

Answer:

Unrealized gain = 74710

Explanation:

The answers for a and b are a journal which is in a table. I have computed this in the attachment

C. U realized gain computation

Munter = $10460 x 65 = $679900

King company = 6790 x 40 = $271600

Castle company = 41440 x 24 = 28800

Unrealized gain/loss = (679900-585760)+(271600-278390)+(28800-41440) = $74710

The unrealized gain = 74710
