Gravity, Inc., needs to raise $50 million to fund its expansion plans. The company will sell shares at a price of $28.40 in a general cash offer and the company's underwriters will charge a spread of 6.5 percent. How many shares need to be sold

1,882,956 shares

Explanation:

Amount that company wants to raise = $50,000,000

Price per share in general cash offer = Price per share offered to public

Price per share offered to public = $28.40

Underwriters Spread = 7.5%

Underwriter's commission per share = 6.5% * $28.40 = $1.846

Amount received by company per share = Price per share in general cash offer - Underwriter's commission per share

Amount received by company per share = $28.40 - $1.846

Amount received by company per share = $26.554

Amount that company wants to raise = Number of shares sold * Amount received by company per share

50,000,000 = Number of shares sold * $26.554

Number of shares sold = $50,000,000 / $26.554

Number of shares sold = 1882955.486932289

Number of shares sold = 1,882,956 shares

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.
