Answer:

There was no effect of this share issue on the price per share

Explanation:

First, we need to determine the pre-issuance value

Numbers of outstanding shares = 158,000,000 shares

Total Value of equity = Numbers of outstanding shares x Market value per share = 158,000,000 shares  x $55 per share = $8,690,000,000

Now calculate the issuance values

Numbers of shares issued = 30,000,000 shares

Vaue of issued equity = NUmbers of shares issued x Mrket value per share = 30,000,000 x $55 per share = $1,650,000,000

Now determien the post issuance value

Numbers of outstanding shares = 158,000,000 shares + 30,000,000 shares = 188,000,000 shares

Total Value of equity = $8,690,000,000 + $1,650,000,000 = $10,340,000,000

Now calcuate the Value per share

Value per share = Post Issuance Total value of equity / Post issuance total numbers of shares = $10,340,000,000 / 188,000,000 shares = $55 per share

There is no effect of share issue on the price of the share.
