Oof, this is a tough one. I'm leaning towards option C, but I'm also a little worried that I might be overthinking it. At the end of the day, it's all about the numbers, right? *scratches head*

Alright, let's do this! I'm going with option A. One new share for every four existing shares sounds about right. Plus, it's the first option, so it must be the easiest one, right? *laughs*

Hmm, I'm not too sure about this one. Maybe option D? Doesn't seem like a lot of shares need to be issued for $20 million. I wonder if the person who wrote this question has ever tried to raise capital before.

Really? I was leaning towards option C, 1 new share for every 5 existing shares.

I agree with Tommy. The discount of 20% means the new share price will be $4, which is 20% less than the current market price of $5.

I think option C is the correct answer. The company needs to raise $20 million, and with a 20% discount, the new share price would be $4. With 20 million shares currently in issue, the company would need to issue 5 million new shares to raise the required $20 million.
