Answer: The difference between the price at which a dealer is willing to buy a security and the price at which a dealer is willing to sell it.

Net profit = $400

Explanation:

The bid ask spread is the difference between the price at which a dealer is willing to buy a security and the price at which a dealer is willing to sell it.

From the question, we have been given the following information:

Bid price = $30.25

Ask price = $30.65

Bisk ask spread = Ask price - Bud price

= $30.65 - $30.25

= $0.40

Net profit = $0.40 × 1000

= $400
