A mutual fund share has a net asset value (NAV) of $19.05 and a maximum sales charge of 5%. What is the public offering price?
a.$19.05
b.$18.10
c.$20.00
d.$20.05
Explanation
When the sales charge is a percentage of the POP, POP = NAV / (1 - sales charge rate) = $19.05 / (1 - 0.05) = $19.05 / 0.95 = $20.05. The sales charge is $1.00, which is 5% of the $20.05 offering price.
