a. Assume that 800,000 new corporate shares will be issued to the general public. What
will earnings per share be immediately after the public offering? (Round to two places

initial price of the stock be? Use earnings per share after the distribution in the
calculation.
b. Assuming an underwriting spread of 5 percent and out-of-pocket costs of $300,000,
what will net proceeds to the corporation be?
c. What return must the corporation earn on the net proceeds to equal the earnings per
