Answer:

Sue gained $ 2500 on the sales of 5000 shares of sony stock.

Explanation:

amount on sales of shares = $ 10000 + $ 20000

                                            = $ 30000

amount adjusted basis on shares = $ 27500

gain or loss on the sales of shares = amount on sales of shares - amound adjusted basis on shares

                                                          = $ 30000 - $ 27500

                                                          = $ 2500

Therefore, Sue gained $ 2500 on the sales of 5000 shares of sony stock.
