Summary Introduction

Case synopsis:

Person MS and Person TS are discussing the prospect of Company SS. The company seems to grow fast. However, the fast growth of the company proves difficult to be financed by the company’s internal source. Thus, Person MS and Person TS have decided to go public and discuss about this with the Investment Bank CM.

The underwriter of the Company was Person RH who assisted in the previous offerings of the company. The investment bank assisted many companies for their initial public offering; thus, Person MS and Person TS are confident about the investment bank. The underwriter states the process that is taken by the investment bank.

Characters in the case:

  • Person MS
  • Person TS
  • Person RH
  • Investment bank CM
  • Company SS

Adequate information:

  • Person RH states to Person TS and MS that they must give their 3 years’ audited financial statements if they need to file with the securities’ exchange commission.
  • Person MS states that the company has given the financial statements that are audited as a part of the bond covenant.
  • The company makes a payment of $300,000 to the outside auditor.
  • Person MS feels that the company must raise $110 million.
  • After the deliberation, Person MS and Person TS made a decision that the firm must utilize a firm commitment offering with the Investment Bank CM as the lead underwriter.

To determine: The cost of the initial public offering to the company as a percentage of the funds that are received.

Let it denote the effective annual return achieved on an equity fund achieved between time (t-1) and time t. Annual log-returns on the fund, denoted by In(1+i̟²), are assumed to form a series of independent and identically distributed Normal random variables with parameters µ = 7% and σ = 10%. An investor has a liability of £20,000 payable at time 10. Calculate the amount of money that should be invested now so that the probability that the investor will be unable to meet the liability as it falls due is only 5%. Express your answer to the NEAREST INTEGER and do NOT include a "£" sign. Note: From standard Normal tables, we have (-1.645) = 0.05.
For this question, use this data: myFunc = function (x, y = 2) {z = 7 Z+x^2+y } What is the output of myFunc(2)? O 13. O An error, y is undefined. O Nothing, we have to assign it as a vari O 9.
