    Given data
    Ke 16%(all equity company)
    Market value (ex-div) $ 250 million
    Existing number of shares 100,000
    Constant dividend paid each ye $ 4 million
    New investment requirement $ 1.5 million
    NPV of project = $ 300,000 per annum in perpetuity

    Sources to finance the new investment
    1. Reduce existing dividend
    2. Issue right shares 6,250 @ $ 240 each
    3. Offer new public issue

    Required: calculate value of company in each case separately?

    Solution
    1. Reduce dividend = (4,000,000+300,000)/16% = 26,875,000
    = 26,875,000/100,000 = 268.75

    2. Right shares = 26,875,000/(100,000+6,250) = 252.94

    3. New offer = (26,875,000+1,500,000)/100,000 = 283.75

    One thing is clear that value of the company will be increased by NPV of the project in each of above cases.
    My first question is, Have I solved the question correctly ?
    If yes then In second case where right shares are issued, why the inflow (of $1.5million) from right issue is not added to the market value of the company.

    Well……you have solved it correctly subject to two things.

    Firstly, the NPV cannot be $300,000 per annum in perpetuity!!! What I think you mean is that the cash benefit from the project is $300,000 per annum in perpetuity.

    Secondly, what you have calculated is the market value per share, which is not the value of the company (which is number of shares x mkt value per share).
