The Presley Corporation is about to go public. It currently has aftertax earnings of $7,500,000, and 2,500,000 shares are owned by the present stockholders (the Presley family). The new public issue will represent 600,000 new shares. The new shares will be priced to the public at $20 per share, with a 5 percent spread on the offering price. There will also be $200,000 in out-of-picket costs to the corporation.

Net Proceed = 2,500,000 shares x $20 x 0.95 - $200,000
Net Proceed = $47,300,000

This is homework, obviously by the (a). Real life doesn't come listed with lettered instructions.

Criado, you should read it to. We aren't here just to answer people's homework for them. Most students, most of the time, do not learn just from seeing an answer, not to mention that they should show an attempt at doing their own work first.
