$344.22

Explanation:

Calculation to determine how much profit did he make from buying and selling these bonds

First step is to calculate how much Timothy invested in February, June and August

February=2 x $1,000 x 94.593%

February = $1,891.86

June= 2 x $1,000 x 92.661%

June= $1,853.22

August= $1,000 x 105.48%

August = $1,054.80

Total investment = $4,799.88

($1,891.86+$1,853.22+$1,054.80)

Seconds step

Since Timothg sold 5 bonds in the month of October at 102.882 each which means he will received:

Amount received= 5 x $1,000 x 102.882%

Amount received= $5,144.10

Now let determine his Total profit

Total profit = $5,144.10 - $4,799.88

Total profit= $344.22

Therefore how much profit did he make from buying and selling these bonds will be $344.22
