e=determine what rate of return must be earned on the proceeds of the corporation so there will be 5% increase in EPS during the year going public (round answers to 2 decimal places  

Explanation / Answer

spread = 20 *4% = 0.8


spred = 20 -0.8 = 19.2


net proceeds befor out of pocket expense = 19.2 * 600000 = 11520000


total net proceeds = 11520000 - 210000 = 11310000



b) earnings per share = 7900000/2800000 = 2.82


c) earnings per share = 7900000/3400000 = 2.32


d) incremental earnings = 3400000 * 2.82 - 7900000 = 1688000


required rate of retiurn = 1688000/11310000 = 14.92%



e) incremental earnings = 3400000 * 2.82 * 1.05 - 7900000 = 2167400


rate of return = 2167400/11310000 = 19.16%
