Computation of Number of Shares:

Attributed stock = Stock owned directly + (Stock owned by mother and father) + (Proportionate stock held by her father in J&J partnership)

= 45 shares + (45 shares + 45 shares) + (40 shares * 50%)

= 45 shares + 90 shares + 20 shares

= 155 shares

Thus, the number of shares held by person Shirley, as stock attribution rules is 155 shares.
