    a. NAV = 8 per share

    b. 250.000 shares

    c. 7.95

    Explanation:

    a. NAV = Market value of shares/number of shares = $8m/1m = $8 per share

    b. At the current NAV, it can absorb up to $2 million, or 250,000 shares.

    c-1. Its loss by selling 25,000 shares of IBM at $34 instead of $36 = - $2 x 25,000 = - $50,000.

    New NAV = $7,950,000 / 1m = $7.95
