Javits & Sons’ common stock is currently trading at $30 a share. The stock is expected to pay a dividend of $3.00 a share at the end of the year (D1 _ $3.00), and the dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5 percent a year. If the company were to issue external equity, it would incur a 10 percent flotation cost. What are the costs of internal and external equity?

Ok, lets say I start a company and its does well. Eventually I decide to go for an IPO.

Ive heard that companies float onthe stock market to raise capital, but how does that work, because since 100% of teh shares are mine wouldnt the money go to me instead of the company?

I just began buy stocks and I have been doing a lot of research know I have an idea of how it works. A company goes public they have an IPO to raise money for different reasons know they always set a price usually or I guess an estimate know what is the deal when they start to trade public but its so high compared to when the initial price was and some situations the same or lower what I’m trying to find out is who gets the option to buy at the initial price I guess before public

Equity can either be private or public and these terms are often used in the press. In the transition from the former to the latter there is typically an IPO. Public equity is also known as stocks or shares.

What is the difference between new common stock and internal common equity?

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008
Nevyll asked:


It seems that common equity is broken down into retained earnings (internal common equity) and new common stock (external common equity). So other than one being internal and the other being external, is there any other difference between them?
