4. IPO Underpricing [LO3] The Woods Co. and the
Spieth Co. have both announced IPOS at $40 per share. One
of these is undervalued by $9, and the other is overvalued by
$4, but you have no way of knowing which is which. You
plan to buy 1,000 shares of each issue. If an issue is
underpriced, it will be rationed, and only half your order will
be filled. If you could get 1,000 shares in Woods and 1,00o
shares in Spieth, what would your profit be? What profit do
you actually expect? What principle have you illustrated?

answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
