Survivor, Inc., an all-equity firm, has eight shares of stock outstanding. Yesterday, the firm’s assets consisted of nine ounces of platinum, currently worth $1,750 per ounce. Today, the company issued Ms. Wu a warrant for its fair value of $1,750.

b. What was the price of a single share of stock immediately after the warrant was issued?

c. Suppose platinum is selling for $1,950 per ounce on the warrant’s expiration date in one year. What will be the value of a single share of stock on the warrant’s expiration date?
