PART 1: Janet sells a share of Harper short at $9.50 per share, and at some future date covers her short position (gets out of his short position) when Harper is trading at $14.25. What is Janet's profit or loss on the trade? $

Place your answer with dollars and cents without a dollar sign. All losses (negative answers) should be placed with a "minus" sign. For example, if your answer is a loss of two dollars and seventy five cents, then enter -2.75.
