On the main question - I've no idea. Sorry

On the subordinate question:

If I understand the question correctly: It's actually straight forward. 
I attach a screen shot of a (dummy) share purchase, a sale follows much 
the same pattern. The actual numbers should be available from the 
purchase contract provided by your broker (sometimes a bit of arithmetic 
may be necessary).

Hope that helps

Eric
