A five year project will require an investment of $100 million. This comprises of plant and machinery worth $80 million and a net working capital of of $20 million. The entire outlay will be incurred at the project's commencement .
Financing for the project has been arranged as follows:
80000 new common shares are issued , The market price of which is $500 per share.These share will offer a dividend of $4 per share in year 1 , which is expected to grow at a rate of 9% per year for an indefinite tenure.
