Your client wants to make $20 per share on the stock when it is sold. The client calls you to find out why you have not sold the shares today, because they saw the stock listed with a net asset value of $41.30 and an offer price of $41.45. Explain to your client why you have not sold the shares You paid the offer price of $21.45 per share for your stock, and you can sell it for its net asset value of $41.30 per share. That is a profit of only $19.85 per share, which is not the $20 per share you want to get
