...P11-1 West Coast Manufacturing Company (WCMC) is executing an initial public offering with the following characteristics. The company will sell 10 million shares at an offer price of $25 per share, the underwriter will charge 7% underwriting fee, and the shares are expected to sell for $32 per share by the end of the first day’s trading. Assume that this IPO is executed as anticipated. a. Calculate the initial return earned by investors who are allocated shares in the IPO. Profit per share = $7 Return for investor =7/25=28% b. How much will WCMC receive from this offering? Total no shares issued = 10 million Price per share = $25 Total amount collected from investors 25*10 million = $250 million. Underwriting fee 7% Underwriting fee paid from collection =7%*250 million = $17.50million. Net proceeds = $250 million - $17.50 = $232.50 million WCMC will receive 232.50 million c. What is the total cost (underwriting fee and under pricing) of this issue to (WCMC)? Total of issue Underwriting fee = $17.50 million Under-pricing value = profits earned by investors at end of 1 day =$7*10 million = $70 million Total cost of issue =$17.5 million = $70 million = $87.50 million P11-2 Suppose you purchase shares of Engel, Inc (EI) which recently executed an IPO at the post-offering market price of $32 per share and you hold the shares for one year.

...Chapter 1, Problem 1 A) Calculate the tax disadvantage to organizing a U.S. business today as a corporation, as compared to a partnership, under the following conditions. Assume that all earnings will be paid out as cash dividends. Operating income (operating profit before taxes) will be $500,000 per year under either organizational form. The tax rate on corporate profits is 35% (= 0.35), the average personal tax rate for the partners is also 35%, and the capital gains tax rate on dividend income is 15% (= 0.15). As a partnership the $500,000 will only be taxed one time, so $500,000 x (1-0.35) = $325,000. As a corporation the $500,000 will be taxed two times at corporate level and personal level, so $500,000 x (1-0.35) (1-0.15) = $276,250. The difference is $48,750 less in a corporation. B) Now recalculate the tax disadvantage using the same income but with the maximum tax rates that existed before 2003. These rates were 35% on corporate profits and 38.6% (= 0.386) on personal investment income. As a partnership before 2003 partners would receive $500,000 x (1-0.386) = $ 307,000. As a corporation before 2003 again it would be taxed twice (corporate and personal levels) so they would receive $500,000 x (1-o.35) (1-0.386) = $199,550. The difference is that corporate receives $107,450 less. Chapter 2, Problem 2 Given the balance sheets and selected data from the income statement of SMG Industries that follow, answer parts a-c.
