Quick questions chaps as I struggle my way through past exam papers...

"The New Word Corporation has 1,000,000 shares outstanding at €30/share. If the firm wishes to raise €13.5 million at a subscription price of €27/share, calculate the value of a right"

My answer;
(Stock Price - Rights subscription price per share) / # of rights required to buy one share + 1
= €30 - €27/1+1 = €1.50

Is it that simple??
