Answer:

A) -87.50%

Explanation:

The computation of the return on the investment is shown below:

= (Acquired price by JB Morgon - purchase price per share) ÷ (purchase price per share)

= ($11 per share - $88 per share) ÷ (88 per share)

= - ($77 per share) ÷ (88 per share)

= -87.50%

We simply take the difference of the price and then divide it with the purchase price per share so that the correct percentage can come.
