Answer(s): C

Explanation:

D. Regulation D enables smaller firms to raise capital more quickly and more cheaply, but it also restricts the resale of the securities being sold in a Regulation D offering.

The disclosure requirements are minimal with a Regulation D offering, however.

Steve Sharp sees a quote for a mutual fund that indicates the fund has a net asset value (NAV) of $26.60 and a public offering price (POP) of $28.00. Based on this, Mr. Sharp quickly ascertains that this fund must have:

  1. a front-end load of 5.0%.
  2. a front-end load of 5.3%.
  3. either a front-end or rear-end load of 5.0%.
  4. either a front-end or rear-end load of 5.3%.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

A mutual fund that is reported to have a NAV of $26.60 and a POP of $28.00 must have a
front-end load of 5.0%. Front-end load = (POP - NAV)/POP = ($28.00 - $26.60)/$28.00 = 5.0%.
