Book value is equal to:
a. Assets-(Liabilities+Equity)
b. Assets-(Liabilities/#of shares of common stock outstanding)
c. Net worth
d. Assets/# of shares of common stock outstanding
The Correct Answer is C
Book Value = Sharholders Equity = Total Assets - Total Liabilities
Now Book Value per Share = Sharholders Equity / No. of Shares Outstanding
and therfore b and d are incorrect as one needs to divide Equity /No. of Shares Outstanding to arive at book value and not assets / liabilities
a is incorrect as the Total Assets - (Liability+ Equity) = 0
as Total Assets = Total Liabilities and Total Liabilities = Debt + Equity + Current Liabilities
