Bethesda Biosys issues an IPO on a best-efforts basis. The company's investment bank requires a spread of 18 percent of the sell

Andrej [43]

Answer:

Bethesda Biosys

Issue of an IPO:

Net proceeds for the issuer is $82 million, if all the 4 million shares are bought by investors.

Explanation:

a) Calculations:

The spread is $4.5 (18% of $25) per share, since average selling price is $25.

Therefore, the net proceed per share is $20.50 ($25 - 4.50).

And the Total Net Proceeds = $82 million ($20.50 * 4 million), assuming that all four million shares were bought by the public.

Note that the question did not provide the necessary information to make the final decision.

b) During the issue of securities, especially an IPO, underwriters, such as investment banks, pay an issuing company for the securities and then sell the securities to the public. There is always a difference per share price that they are willing to pay the issuer and what they will collect from the investing public. That difference is called the underwriting spread or simply the spread.

c) Best-Efforts Basis: According to investopedia.com, underwriting on best-effort basis is "an agreement between an underwriter and an issuer in which the underwriter agrees to place as much of an offering with investors as possible, but is not responsible for any portion of the offering it fails to sell."

Complete the sentence. "When a market failure arises because marginal social benefit exceeds the ability and willingness to pay

pochemuha

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Market failure refers to the situation when the market is not able to efficiently allocate resources and the government has to intervene. Market failure generally happens because of the presence of externalities.

When the marginal social cost is greater than the ability and willingness to pay, the market will fail to optimally allocate resources. The government, as a result, will intervene.

The government will use vouchers which will cause the marginal private benefit curve to shift upwards by the size of the per-unit voucher.

Assume instead that (a) freight costs were paid by the vendor, (b) no discounts were taken, and (c) the merchandise on hand at t

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The missing part of the question is found below:

Cinnamon Buns Co. (CBC) started 2021 with $52,000 of merchandise on hand. During 2021, $280,000 in merchandise was purchased on account with credit terms of 2/10, n/30. All discounts were taken. Purchases were all made f.o.b. shipping point. CBC paid freight charges of $9,000. Merchandise with an invoice amount of $4,000 was returned for credit. Cost of goods sold for the year was $316,000. CBC uses a perpetual inventory system.

Option A,$318,000 is correct

Explanation:

The points to note in answering this question are :

The opening inventory of $52,000 was overvalued as $10,000 out of it was held for third as consignment,hence it does belong to Cinnamon Buns Co(CBC).

Secondly,in calculating the costs of goods available the freight charges are disregarded since it assumed to have been paid by the supplier.

Lastly discounts are assumed not have been taken,as a result the purchase and returns should be stated at invoice prices.

Restated opening inventory=$52,000-$10,000=$42,000

Merchandise purchased is $280,000

merchandise returned is $4,000

Costs of goods available=opening inventory+purchases-returns

=$42,000+$280,000-$4000

=$318,000
