Respuesta :

Answer:

$94 per share

Explanation:

Stockholders Equity Includes the Add-in-capital par value, Add-in-capital excess value of Common and Preferred, Net income accumulated value and dividends.

Equity of the firm = Assets - Liabilities

Equity of the firm  = $125 million - $25 million = $100 million

Net Addition in the equity = Net earning for the period - Dividend paid

Net Addition in the equity = $10 million - $4 million - $6 million

Book Value of the equity = Equity of the firm - Additions in the year

Book Value of the equity = $100 - $6 = $94 million

Book value per share = Book Value of the equity / Numbers of Share

Book value per share = $94 million / 1 million

Book value per share = $94 per share
