Answer:

a. Profit = $780,000

b. Profit = $3,780,000

c. Loss = $2,220,000

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Beedles Inc. needed to raise $14 million in an IPO and chose Security Brokers Inc. to underwrite the offering. The agreement stated that Security Brokers would sell 3 million shares to the public and provide $14 million in net proceeds to Beedles. The out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Security Brokers in the design and distribution of the issue were $220,000. What profit or loss would Security Brokers incur if the issue were sold to the public at the following average price

a. $5 per share

b. $6 per share

c. $4 per share

The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:

The profit or loss can be calculated using the following formula:

Profit or loss = Sales proceed - Net proceeds to Beedles - Out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Security Brokers ........... (1)

Where;

Sales proceed = Average price * Number of shares = Average price per share * 3,000,000

Net proceeds to Beedles = 14,000,000

Out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Security Brokers = $220,000

We can proceed as follows:

a. profit or loss at average price $5 per share

Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:

Profit or loss = ($5 * 3,000,000) - $14,000,000 - $220,000 = $780,000 profit

b. profit or loss at average price $6 per share

Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:

Profit or loss = ($6 * 3,000,000) - $14,000,000 - $220,000 = $3,780,000 profit

c. profit or loss at average price $4 per share

Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:

Profit or loss = ($4 * 3,000,000) - $14,000,000 - $220,000 = -$2,220,000 loss

The debt has an interest rate of 8.50% (short term) and 10.50% (long term). The expected rate of return on the company's shares

viva [34]

Answer:

Re = 16.02%

Explanation:

current stock price 36 x 7,660,000 = 275,760,000

cost of equity = 17.5%

current short term debt = 141,600,000

cost of short term debt = 8.5%

current long term debt = 210,600,000

cost of long term debt = 10.5%

total financing = 627,960,000

equity = 275,760,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.4391
short term debt = 141,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.2255
long term debt = 210,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.3354

WACC = (0.4391 x 0.175) + (0.2255 x 0.085 x 0.75) + (0.3354 x 0.105 x 0.75) = 0.0768 + 0.0144 + 0.0264 = 0.1176 or 11.76%

under the new structure:

total financing = 627,960,000

equity = 325,760,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.5188
short term debt = 141,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.2255
long term debt = 160,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.2557

assuming WACC remains unchanged:

0.1176 = (0.5188 x Re) + (0.2255 x 0.085 x 0.75) + (0.2557 x 0.105 x 0.75) = (0.5188 x Re) + 0.0144 + 0.0201 = (0.5188 x Re) + 0.0345

0.5188 x Re = 0.1176 - 0.0345 = 0.0831

Re = 0.0831 / 0.5188 = 0.1602 or 16.02%
