    Explanation:

    The data in the question are merged and they are separated first before the question is answered as follows:

    Security Shares Purchased Cost ($)

    Hawking Inc. 750 33,375

    Pavlov Co. 2,030 47,096

    The answers and explanation are now as follows:

    Hawking Inc. market value = $53 * 750 = $39,750

    Pavlov Co. market value = $42 * 2,030 = $85,260

    Total market value stock = $125,010

    Total cost of stock = $33,375 + 47,096 = $80,471

    Unrealized gain from stock = Market value - Cost = $125,010 - $80,471 = $44,539
