Teaching Objectives
After reading and discussing the material, students should:
- Describe the current capitalization of a privately held company in a standard current capitalization table.
- Analyze the capital required to launch and grow a business, and the extent to which the additional capital from each new round of financing will dilute the proportional ownership of existing shareholders.
- Create a capitalization-planning table for dynamic capitalization forecasting.
