Problem:
No. of Outstanding share before issue = 4,000,000
No. of Outstanding share after issue 4,000,000 + 500,000 = 4,500,000 (500k shares issued @ 31 per share)
EPS before issue = $1.75 ; EPS after issue = $1.56
If the 500,000 shares can only be issues at $31 per share and the company can earn 6% on the net proceeds, should they still proceed with this issue based upon EPS?
