    The question is as follows:

    A company is investing $70 million in a new project and will be funding part of the investment by debt and the remainder by equity through a rights issue.
    The current share price is $4 and the market capitalization is $200million.
    The rights issue price will be at a discount of 20% to the current share price.
    The rights issue will be on a 1 for 5 basis. The issue costs are expected to be $2million. The current equity gearing is 40% (debt:equity)
    What is the revised Equity gearing of the company?

    A. 40%
    B. 42.9%
    C. 40.7%
    D.415%

    I got this question from my friend, I wish to obtain a solution.
    Thank You
