Old Economy Traders opened an account to short-sell 1,300 shares of Internet Dreams at $46 per share. The initial margin requirement was 50%. (The margin account pays no interest.) A year later, the price of Internet Dreams has risen from $46 to $59, and the stock has paid a dividend of $3.50 per share. a. What is the remaining margin in the account? (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)

Answer: $8450

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total initial asset which will be the value of shares sold and the margin which will be:

= (1300 × $46) + (50% × 1300 × $46)

= $59800 + $29900

= $89700

We will then calculate total liability which will be:

= (1300 × $59) + (1300 × $3.50)

= $76700 + $4550

= $81250

The remaining margin will then be:

= $89700 - $81250

= $8450
