Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Longard Corp.

The money that Longard Corp. receives is:

= $75 million.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of shares issued = 5 million

Investment bank underwriter pays per share to Longard Corp = $15

Stock price to the public = $20 per share

Total amount received from the underwriter = $75 million ($15 * 5 million)

b) The calculations show that the investment bank will eventually receive $100 million ($20 * 5 million) from the public offer.  It then charges $5 per share (representing a total underwriting fee of $25 million).  This is why it remits only $75 million to Longard Corp.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

C. $454,000.

We know that

The ending balance of retained earnings = Opening balance of retained earnings + net income - dividend paid

$375,000 = $0 + net income - $79,000
