    Answer: Total dollar cost along with direct and indirect cost is $2,077,500.

    Calculation notes:

    Calculation of indirect cost = (actual stock price - issued price amount received) x no of shares

    (22.40-16.50) x 225000

    =$1327500

    Given that legal and administrative cost which is direct cost as $750000.

    Total dollar cost = Direct cost + Indirect cost

    =750000+1327500

    =$2077500
