Answer #1
Investment required $      5,000,000
Subscription price $                  50
New shares issued             100,000
Existing no of shares             500,000
No of rights required for 1 share 500000/100000
No of rights required for 1 share                   5.00
Share price before right issue $             68.00
Rights required for new share 5
Subscription price $             50.00
Share price after right issue= (Before right price * Shares required for right share + New subscription price)/Old share + Right share
Share price after right issue= '((68*5)+50)/(5+1)
Share price after right issue= $             65.00
Value of 1 right '(68-65)
Value of 1 right $               3.00
Value of 1 right to acquire 1 share '5*3        15.00
Shares already held- 500000*2%          10,000.00
Stock Valuation before right '10000*68 $680,000
There will be no impact if shareholder either exercise his right or sell his rights
If Rights are used to purchase additional share
Old share               10,000
Right shares- 10000/5                 2,000
Total Share               12,000
Share price after right issue                 65.00
Total Wealth             780,000
Less value paid for right shares-2000*50 $       (100,000)
Effective wealth $         680,000
%age ownership-old 10000/500000 2.00%
%age ownership-new 12000/600000 2.00%
If investor sells the rights then there will be no impact on his wealth however since purchaser of right will be purchasing
the additional shares and hence his shareholding will go down.
If investor let the right expire, the wealth will be eroded for investor. Also, the comparitive ownership will also go down.
