Question: Suppose on May 3 1 , 2 0 2 2 , the DJIA opened at 3 3 , 2 2 4 . 5 9 .

Suppose on May 31,2022, the DJIA opened at 33,224.59. The divisor at that time was 0.15244. In June 2022, United Healthcare (UNH) was the highest-priced stock in the DJIA and Walgreens (WBA) was the lowest. The opening price for UNH on May 31,2022, was $511.78, and the closing price for WBA was $45.03. Suppose this day the other 29 stock prices remained unchanged and UNH increased 5 percent. What would the new DJA level be? Now assume only WBA increased by 5 percent. Find the new DJIA level.
Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.
