The owner's % holding is 1.6%

Explanation:

The percentage of the owner's holding in the company can be computed by making reference to the proportion of the cash invested viz-a-viz the other three rounds of financing received by the firm thereafter:

Round A preferred stock $114,000

Round B shares ($0.75*1,000,000) $750,000

Round C series ($3.50*500,000) $1,750,000

Round D series ($7.50*600,000) $4,500,000

Value of the company $7,114,000.

the owner's % holding=$114,000/$7114000

=1.6%
