Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the front end load is shown below:
But before that first we have to do the following calculations
The NAV of the fund is
= market value of fund ÷ number of outstanding shares
= $6.1 billion ÷ 260 million shares
= $23.46
And, The current market price quotation is $25.10
So,
Front end load is
= $25.10 - $23.46
= $1.64
Now
Front end load NAV percentage is
= $1.64 ÷ $23.46
= 6.99%
And,
Front end load current market quotation percentage is
= $1.64 ÷ $25.10
= 6.53%
