Answer

Gross spread at 10.00 → 1000000 · Dealer P&L at 9.30 → -400000

Cells - Gross spread at 10.00 · ±0.01 · unit - Dealer P&L at 9.30 · ±0.01 · unit One formula: `=(resale-purchase)*shares`. At 10.00: (10.00 − 9.50) × 2,000,000 = 1,000,000. At 9.30: (9.30 − 9.50) × 2,000,000 = −400,000 — the dealer’s loss, because in a bought deal the dealer already owns the issue.
