Stock Price after Recapitalization Lee Manufacturing's value of operations is equal to $900 million after a recapitalization. (The firm had no debt before the recap.)

The firm had 38 million shares before the recap. What is P (the stock price after the recap)? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent.

ANSWER
weight of equity = (1 - 1/3) x 900m = 600m
after recap weight of equity = 600 m
before recap share price = 900 / 38 = 23.68
by new share price he buy = 300 / 23.68 = 12.67 m
by using raised debt share = 12.67 m
after recap shares outstanding = 38 - 12.67 = 25.33 m
price per share after recap = weight of equity after recap / number of shares outstanding = 600 / 25.33 = 23.68
stock price after recap = 23.68
