Question 2

TERP

Jones Co, which has an issued share capital of 3 million shares each priced at
$6.70, makes a 2 for 3 rights issue at an issue price of $6.10.

Calculate the TERP.

MV of shares currently in issue = 3m × $6.70 = $20.1m

Number of new shares issued = 3m/3 × 2 = 2m new shares.

Proceeds from share issue = 2m × $6.10 = $12.2m

TERP = ($20.1m + $12.2m)/(3m + 2m) = $6.46 per share
