New common stock can be sold for $50.00 per share, with flotation costs of $10.00 per share. Part 1: a. Which projects would you accept and why? Yes, I need to see some "number crunching". b. What would be your capital budget? Part 2: Let's change one thing. The federal government has decided to increase the regulations affecting the manufacturing of chips. Complying with these new regulations will cost Acme $3 million, wiping out their retained earnings. So now: a. Which projects would you accept and why? More number crunching please! b. What would be their capital budget now? NEED PART 2.
