Wait, is the answer supposed to be $4.20? I'm pretty sure that's the correct answer. What do you mean, 'not a valid option'? Clearly, the exam writers need to brush up on their financial calculations.

I'm just glad they're not asking me to calculate the intrinsic value of the company. That would be a real brain-teaser. This TERP thing seems like a piece of cake in comparison.

Hmm, I wonder if the IRR of 10% on the new project has any bearing on the TERP calculation. Maybe I should factor that in somehow. Time to break out the financial calculator!

Hold on, I need to double-check the formula for TERP. Isn't it something like (Current Shares * Current Price + New Shares * Rights Issue Price) / (Current Shares + New Shares)? This seems straightforward enough.

Great, thanks for confirming. I'll go ahead and calculate the yield-adjusted theoretical ex-rights price using that formula.

So, for this scenario, the TERP would be $4.06.

Yes, that's correct. The formula for TERP is (Current Shares * Current Price + New Shares * Rights Issue Price) / (Current Shares + New Shares).

Okay, let's see if I can figure this out. The current market value is $4 per share, and the rights issue price is $3.50 for 1 new share for 5 existing shares. With a WACC of 8%, the TERP should be somewhere between the two, right? I'll give it a shot.

I agree, it helps determine the fair value of the company's shares after the rights issue.
