Suppose you own stock in a company. The current price per share is P25.00. Another company has just announced that it wants to buy your company and will pay P35.00 per share to acquire all the outstanding stock. Your company’s management immediately begins fighting off this hostile bid. Is management acting in the shareholders’ best interests? Why or why not?
Suppose that you believe the fundamental value of Wal-Grey stock is about to rise from $50 to $100 because of its new management team. You have $20,000 that you can risk in the market, and you can think of four possible ways to profit: a)use your $20,000 to buy shares of Wal-Grey b)borrow (at a 6% interest rate) an additional $20,000 on margin to buy a total of $40,000 worth of Wal-Grey stock c) enter into a futures contract to buy 400 shares of Wal-Grey in one year for $21,200 (you can invest safetly for a year at a 6% interest rate) d)buy a call option (for every $1000 you spend on call options, you have the right to buy 100 shares of Wal-Grey at the current price of $50 per share.) Calculate how much you earn or lose by each method if: (i) Wal-Grey stock rises to $100 per share in one year.
