    Ques –
    Drumlin Co has $5m of $0.50 nominal value ordinary shares in issue. It recently announced a 1 for 4 rights issue at $6 per share. Its share price on the announcement of the rights issue was $8 per share.

    My answer =
    5m/0.5 = 10m shares

    10m * 8 =80m
    2.5m * 6 = 15m ( as right issue)
    total 12.5m and 95m i.e, 95m/12.5 = 7.6 ?

    but answer is sying 0.4 , please correct me where am I going wrong , thanks !

    The TERP is indeed $7.60 per share.

    Therefor the value of the rights is $7.60 – $6 = $1.60 for each right.

    It needs 4 existing shares in order to get the right for 1 new share, therefore the value of the rights is 1.60/4 = $0.40 per existing share.

    It would seem that you have not watched my lectures on this and I do suggest that you do 🙂

    The lectures are a complete free course for Paper FM and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
