Answer 1

$8.53

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

Total sales

= 150,000 × $400

= $60,000,000

Variable = $37,500,000

Fixed cost = $1,000,000

Depreciation = $1,500,000

Tax rate = 35% = 0.35

Net Income = (Sales - Variable - Fixed cost - Depreciation) (1 -Tax rate)

= ( $60,000,000 - $37,500,000 - $1,000,000 - $1,500,000)(1 -0.35)

= $13,000,000

Price per share

= Net income ÷ Existing Fit-bit shares

= $13,000,000 ÷ 2,000,000

= $6.5

Total IPO value = Pre-IPO value + Post-IPO value

= [$91,100,000 + (6.5 × 36,500,000)] ÷ ( 2,000,000 + 36,500,000)

= $8.53

We simply applied the above formula
