a). Maximum number of shares which the firm can sell without requiring authorization is equal to
total authorized shares - outstanding shares = 2,000,000 - 1,400,000 = 600, 000 shares
b). The sale of new common stock will be at $60 per share so if the firm issues 600,000 shares, it can get
600,000*60 = 36,000,000. This is less than the required amount of 48,000,000 so the firm will need to issue additional 200,000 shares at $60. (option D is correct.)
c). Option C - In order to issue more shares, the firm will have to amend its corporate charter to authorize the issuance.
