Expert Solution
Step 1 Introduction

Existing shareholders are extended an opportunity to acquire extra new shares of the firm via the use of the term "rights issue." Existing shareholders get rights in the form of securities via this sort of offering. The shareholder has the ability, at a future period that has been predetermined, to acquire more shares at a price lower than the current market price.
