What is Fractional Shares Profit?

Fractional Shares Profit (FSP) refers to the profit made from owning and selling a fraction of a share of stock. It is calculated by taking the difference between the selling price and the purchase price of the share, and then multiplying by the fractional percentage of the share owned. This allows investors to determine their profit from fractional shares, which are portions of a whole share.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Step 1: Calculate the Fractional Shares Profit (FSP):

\[ FSP = (150 - 100) \times \frac{25}{100} = 50 \times 0.25 = 12.5 \text{ dollars} \]

Therefore, the fractional shares profit is $12.5.
