Hi I
have a friend who purchased the Westpactrust (wptca) shares at their IPO.
He has recently been asked to pay the second instalment of $4.75/share by late
Jan next year. He originally paid $7.20 and the price is now $10.80.
How does the second instalment work, is it already included in the current share
price? (If he sells them today does he get a $2.60/share profit?) If I was to
pay $10.80 for a share today would I also be required to pay the $4.75
instalment in Jan next year? What is likely to happen to the share price
after the second instalment is paid?
Sorry
if the questions are rather simple, but I'm not quite in with the play on this
one.
Regards
John
