Answer:

Around 1762337 shares

Explanation:

The amount needed to be raised = $50,000,000

Price per share =$28.40

Number of shares needed here = $50,000,000/28.40 =1760563 shares

Cost to be covered with the issue = 6.5% of direct flotation costs

=6.5/100 * $775,000 = $50375

Extra shares needed to covered this cost

$50375/$28.40 =1774 shares

Total shares to be sold = 1760563+1774 =1762337 shares
