Answer:

The one-day rate of return on the index is 3.43%

Explanation:

Given that the shares were priced at;

$30    for    710,000 shares

$38    for    610,000 shares

$90    for    310,000 shares

Changes in prices of shares

$34-$30=4

$36-$38= -2

$92-$90=2

Return=change in price of shares/initial price of shares *100

The return will be;

4/30*100 =13.33

-2/38*100= -5.26

2/90*100 = 2.22

Total = 13.33+2.22 - 5.26 =10.29

10.29/3 =3.43
