Hey thereYou assisted me with the previous answer which I have attached,

Current Price of NASDAQ on 4th September, 2015 = $50.30 Current Price of SAP on 4th September, 2015 = $1,921.22 Current Price of Apple Inc. on 4th September, 2015 = $109.27 Current Value of the Investment: NASDAQ = 221 x 50.30 = $11,116.30 SAP = 5 x 1,921.22 = $9,606.10 Apple Inc. = 105 x 109.27 = $11,473.35 Total Current Value = $32,195.75 Ans3. If we consider return of NADAQ, it has given a return of 11.48%, (11,116.30- 9,971.52 / 9,971.52). The return given by the NASDAQ is satisfactory considering the duration of investment. Return from SAP is negative. SAP has given a return of -2.24% (9,606.10 - 9,825.75 / 9,825.75). But negative return is not much high and if we wait for a longer period, than SAP is a good investment. Return of Apple Inc. is 14.82% (11,473.35 - 9,992.85 / 9,992.85). This is again a good return in a short duration and the company has strong fundamentals so for long term this is a good investment. So, overall return is satisfactory, though SAP has a negative return but others have given positive return much higher than SAP
