John’s investment depends on many factors:
- If he wants control in the company or participation in management of the company, he should invest in equity shares.
- If he wants some certainty in returns and also wants something extra in case of huge profits, he should invest in preference shares.
- If he wants perfect certainty, he should invest in public deposits or debentures as rate of return is pre fixed.
- He also needs to see if he wants to invest for short term or long term. If he is interested in short term investment, then he should choose public deposits.
- If he is interested in middle term investment, he should invest in preference shares or debentures.
- If he is interested in long term investment, he should invest in equity shares.
