Informed investors request 2 million shares if high value. Uninformed investors always request 6 million shares because they cannot distinguish quality. What should be the Offering Price assuming allocation of shares proportional to petition (no book-building) and requiring for uninformed investors to break even? 12.39 20.31 10.32 15.87

The analysis that we have to provide is as follows: Review the specifics of the IPO, including underwriting spread and other expenses. Consider the concept of underpricing and a higher than normal first day spike in stock price. What does this mean for the issuing company? What does this mean for the underwriter?
