Question : Which method of floating capital is highlighted in the statement?
Statement: When an existing company issues new shares first of all it invites its existing shareholders.
Option 1: Offer for sale
Option 2: Private placement
Option 3: Right issue
Option 4: Initial public issue
Correct Answer: Right issue
Solution : This method is used by those companies who have already issued their shares. When a company issues new shares, first of all it invites its existing shareholders. This is called the right issue. In this case the shareholder has the right either or accept the offer for himself or assign a part of all of his right in favour of another person.
Hence, option C is correct.
