If investors require 8.9 percent return to invest in this stock, what is its current share price? (Do not include the dollar sign ($), Round your answer to 2 decimal places
On November 7, 2013, Twitter released its initial public offering (IPO) priced at $26 per share. When the day ended, it was priced at $44.90, reportedly making about 1600 people into millionaires in a single day. At the time it was considered a successful IPO. Four years later, Twitteris trading at around $18 per share. Why do you think that occurred? Is Twitter profitable? How can you find out? If it is not profitable, why do investors continue to support it?

In the primary market the company’s shares were priced at $29 per share, but after one day of trading on the Nasdaq, the share price closed at $39.73. The company sold 21.7 million shares in the offering. To what extent (in dollars and on a percentage basis) was DocuSign’s stock underpriced in its IPO? How much cash (before deducting fees to investment banks) did DocuSign raise? How much more would it have raised if the shares had not been underpriced?
