I am considering buying into my brother's Business. He's in entertainment is very sucessfull here in Ireland and has opened up a strong following over the last three years in the UK USA and Austrailia. Recently he aquired all rights to his material which gives him quite a volume of product for the new areas he's touring.
He and his wife currently run the operation as Sole Traders. I have worked closely with him for 20yrs. They are now going to trade as a company and have a number of investors @50k. Most of the other investors just want their invetment plus a % back in 2/3 years. However I would prefer to get Shares in the company.
Could someone please answer the following for me:
How does a conpany decide on the number of shares in it? How would the company decide on the share price?
Many thanks for any help
