How does a company makes profit by its shares?

Stacey asks:

I would like to ask a detailed question. Let us consider a company releasing shares in the initial public offer (IPO). The people at the stock market buy the shares. The company gets the required money. The company put the collected money into its business. Meanwhile, the stock is traded in the share market. Sometimes the share price goes up sometimes goes down depending upon various market dependent and market independent parameters. My question is in what way the company is affected by the fluctutaion in its share prices? Because, the company neither gains any profit when its share prices are up nor loses when its share prices are down. Because, the company has collected the money already. So, the company, its owners and its business are not affected by the share price of that company. It is the poor investers who buy and sell the stock are affected. Am I right? If I am right, why dont we call this as a pure gambling?

a. Knight Corporoation issued 17,912,000, $0.375 par common shares in itis public offer (IPO) on June 15,2004.

At what price did Knight Corporation issue the shares in its IPO?

I tried preparing a journal entry with the Common Stock being 6,717,000 (17,912,000*$0.375), but I don’t know how that would help me figure out the price at which the shares were issued.
Knight Corporation is not a real company, just a made up example for this problem.

Phylis asks:

I am tyring to discover some information about Cornerstone SMR. A friend of mine (who is a private investor in this company) wants some third party information regarding this organization’s financial information and recent moves. Ultimately, we want to see if we can get a better idea if this company is going to go public, as it claims.

Obviously, we have the website address and general information.. http://www.cornerstonesmr.com/

IS there any way we can determine what level of interaction this company has had with the SEC?

How can we obtain (again third party) financials?

Any input will be appreciated
