Brokerage Fee Formula

Brokerage Fee = Investment Amount × Fee Rate

Net Proceeds = Investment Amount - Brokerage Fee

The fee rate varies based on the account type and trade volume. For individual accounts, the fee rate is typically 0.25% of the investment amount. For institutional accounts, the fee rate may be lower.

Example Calculation

Let's say you want to invest $10,000 in stocks through an individual account. Using the calculator:

Example Calculation

Investment Amount: $10,000

Trade Type: Buy

Account Type: Individual

Brokerage Fee: $25 (0.25% of $10,000)
