a. The calculation of the net proceeds from the public issue is $10,252,250.
b. The calculation of the net proceeds from the private placement is $10,465,000.
c. c. The present value (PV) of the extra interest of $787,500 on the private placement is $755,966.89, calculated as follows using an online finance calculator:
N (# of periods) = 10 years
I/Y (Interest per year) = 0.75% (9.5% - 8.75%)
PMT (Periodic Payment) = $78,750 ($10.5 million x 0.75%)
FV (Future Value) = $0
Results:
PV = $755,966.89
Sum of all periodic payments = $787,500.00
d. All things being equal, the better deal appears to be the public issue of the debt.
How is a public issue different from a private placement?
A public issuance of shares involves an initial public offering by placing the shares in the stock market so that investors can purchase shares. A private placement pre-selects the investors who will purchase the shares as the offering is not made public.
Data and Calculations:
Public Issuance:
Face value of debt = $10.5 million
Maturity period = 10 years
Interest rate - 8.75%
Underwriting cost = $162,750 ($10.5 million x 1.55%)
Other expenses = $85,000
Total costs = $247,750
Net proceeds = $10,252,250 ($10.5 million - $247,750)
Private placement:
Face value = $10.5 million
Maturity period = 10 years
Interest rate = 9.5%
Total issuing expenses = $35,000
Net proceeds = $10,465,000 ($10.5 million - $35,000)
