    Number of shares bought = 8,000

    Purchase price = $7.29

    Total purchase price = 8000*7.29 = 58,320

    Sale price = $10.31

    Total selling price = 8000*10.31 = 82,480

    Total Gain = 82,480 - 58,320

    Total Gain = 24,160

    Percentage Gain = Total gain / Total Purchase price * 100

    Percentage Gain = 24,160/58,320 * 100 = 41.43%

    Percentage Gain = 41.43% (Rounded to two decimals)
