The value of BHP Billiton's shares decreased by 10%, so the value of your BHP shares would be $45 per share, resulting in a total value of $9,000 ($45 per share x 200 shares). 
The value of ANZ Bank's shares increased by 20%, so the value of your ANZ shares would be $36 per share, resulting in a total value of $7,200 ($36 per share x 200 shares). 
The value of Flight Centre's shares increased by 12.5%, so the value of your FLT shares would be $45 per share, resulting in a total value of $4,500 ($45 per share x 100 shares). 
The total value of your portfolio after one year would be $20,700 ($9,000 + $7,200 + $4,500).
