Answer:

$1,250

Explanation:

Given the following :

Amount of marginable stock customer wishes to buy = $7,500

Restricted margin account with $2500 of SMA

Since the account is a restricted margin account, that is (account has fallen below intial requirement). There must be a deposit of 50% in the regulation T account.

Hence, to purchase a marginable stock of $7,500;

50% of $7,500 should be deposited;

50/100 × 7,500 = $3750

Since there is $2500 of SMA in restricted margin account

Hence, the amount needed will be ;

($3,750 - $2,500) = $1,250
