Answer 1

a-1)

New Book Value per share = Existing BV per share + Addition to Equity per share = 36 + (920,000/12 M) = $ 36.07 per share

a-2)

Total Earnings = 5.1 M + 0.92 = $ 6.02 M

a-3)

New EPS = (6.02/12) = 0.5016

a-4)

Current Price to Earnings = (27/5.1/12) = 63.52

New Stock Price = 63.52 * 0.5016 = $ 31.86

a-5)

New Price to Book value per share = ( 31.86/ 36.07 )= 0.883

b)

New Stock Price = $ 27 per share

P/E = 63.52

EPS = (price / 63..52) = $ 27/63.52 = 0.425

Net Income = 0.425 * 12 = 5.1 M
