Answer:

Market price is unaffected by announcement

Explanation:

This question says that the company has announced intentions to issue $289 million of debt with intentions of buying common stock with proceeds

Price per share has been given as $10. The market price of the stock would not get affected by this announcement.

I have gone ahead to help you calculate the buyback, market value and debt ratio.

Buyback= $280/10 = 28 million shares

Market value = (37-28)*10 + 280 = 370 million

Debt ratio = 280/370 = 76%
