    At the end ofthe day it loss 504

    Explanation:

    First, we will compare the IPO value with the market price to check the result per share

    IPO A 26

    market value 23.90

    loss per share 2.1

    IPO B 26

    market value 29.4

    gain per share 3.4

    Then, we multiply by the amount of shares for each IPO

    shares of IPO A 500

    loss for IPO A 500x 2.1 = 1,050

    shares of IPO B 240

    gain for IPO B 240 x 2.1 = 504

    Last, we put the values together and get the net for the transaction

    IPO A (1,050)

    IPO B 504

    total (546)
