Why, again, are you attempting questions for which you do not have an answer? You should be using a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA Approved Publishers - they have answers and workings!! And why have you not watched my free lectures on rights issues? You cannot expect me to type out all my lectures here!!! The new share are being issued at $3 per share, and therefore the are issuing 3 million shares. It is therefore a 3 for 10 rights issue. So the TERP is (( 10 x $4) + (3 x $3) / 13 = $3.77 and your answer is therefore correct :-)
