The shares could have been issued at the market price of R12,00 or the NAV of

His dividends would have increased by R61 200 (51c x 120 000 shares). This is
more than the interest he earned on the savings account R54 600
(1 092 000 see above x 5%)
He could buy the shares for capital growth - bought the shares for R9,10 and
then could sell them on the JSE for R12,00 / total profit could have been

6.3.5 Comment on the price paid by Ronki Ltd for the repurchase (buy-back)
of shares.
Expected response:
The company is paying a premium above the average share price in order

returns by decreasing equity / this is a fair value same as the price on the
JSE.

Explanation Figures
Expected responses: Three different responses
He has now become a majority shareholder. His 300 000 shares are
51,7% of the total shares (33,3% before the share buy-back)
Due to the reduced number of shares, his return has improved i.e. EPS
has increased by 95c / from 171c to 266c/ROSHE increased from 13%
to 16%. (NOTE: EPS and ROSHE reinforce the same point).
The reduced number of shares could have contributed to an increase in
the DPS by 57c / by 55,3%/ from 103c to 160c (Directors may have
maintained the dividend pay-out policy). 6
