FarCry Industries, a maker of telecommunications equipment, has 2 million shares of common stock outstanding, 1 million shares of preferred stock outstanding, and 10,000 bonds. Suppose the common shares are selling for $26 per share, the preferred shares are selling for $14.00 per share, and the bonds are selling for 97 percent of par. |
