The Closed Fund is a closed-end investment company with a portfolio currently worth $260 million. It has liabilities of $2 million and 6 million shares outstanding. a. What is the NAV of the fund? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) b. If the fund sells for $40 per share, what is its premium or discount as a percent of NAV? (Input the amount as a positive value. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is given below:

NAV = (Total value - Liabilities) ÷ Number of shares outstanding

= ($260M - $2M) ÷ 6M

= $258M ÷ 6M

= $43

b. The premium or discount is  

= (Market price - NAV) ÷ NAV

= ($40 - $43) ÷ $43

= -$3 ÷ $43

= -0.06976 or -6.98%

So here the fund should be sold at 6.98% discount
