    Fiscal policy refers to use of government revenue collection and expenditure to influence its economy. Fiscal policy targets a country’s budget of its economic activities. Government can adjust its spending and taxation levels through changing the income distribution, resource allocation or level of aggregate demand and economic activity. In the context of Brazil, in 1970s, the government put some stringent penalties to regulate its imports. The government kept the import tax and penalties high. To implement the policies, the government applied tax deduction on imports, for instance, a Brazilian resident who imported intangibles like knowhow, software and royalties would be subject to withholding tax from remittances, this was equivalent to 25% of an individual registered capital. If a Brazilian taxpayer bought software from abroad, worth £100, the seller would be receiving £15 while the £85 would be remitted to the government. Brazilian tax rule treated any payment of intangible imports as a profit distribution regardless of their justification. This meant that in any importing individual or company would pay more than its income a year (Poterba, 1999).…

    An initial public offering (IPO) refers to the initial stage of shares offering to the public market for subscriptions by a company to raise capital for the purpose of expansion. It is considered as a big issue for companies as an IPO does not necessary guarantee the success of a company as it is merely a tool of raising capital while its costs of issuance and consecutive monitoring costs (due to diluted shareholdings of the company by public investors) are relatively higher than the cost of issuing corporate debt. Yet IPO is still a popular tool for infant firms due to the fact it creates strategic market exposure. JetBlue was attempting to issue an IPO in 2002 after the subsequent event of 9/11 terrorist attack. This report attempts to calculate and evaluate the IPO valuation of JetBlue’s stocks and provide recommendation and adjustments where necessary to reflect the true value of JetBlue.…
