A mutual fund's price per share or exchange-traded fund's per-share value. In both cases, the per-share dollar amount of the fund is derived by dividing the total value of all the securities in its portfolio, less any liabilities, by the number of fund shares outstanding.
In the context of mutual funds, net asset value per share is computed once a day based on the closing market prices of the securities in the fund's portfolio. All mutual fund buy and sell orders are processed at the NAV of the trade date; however, investors must wait until the until the following day to get the trade price.
