Shamrock Inc. has total assets of $16 million including cash and marketable securities of $3 million, debt of $2 million, book value of equity of $11 million and market value of equity of $33 million. Last year EBITDA was $4 million and net earnings were $2.2 million.
______29) The EV to EBITDA ratio is closest to:
A. 5 times B. 8 times C. 8.25 times D. 15 times
______30) The price to book ratio is closest to:
A. 2 times B. 3 times C. 5 times D. 8 times
Given about Shamrock Inc.
Market value of equity = $33 million
Cash and marketable securities = $3 million
Debt = $2 million
EBITDA = $4 million
Book value of equity = $11 million
29). So, EV of the firm = MV of equity + Debt - cash and marketable securities = 33 + 2 - 3 = $32 million
So, EV/EBITDA ratio = 32/4 = 8 times. Option B is correct.
31). Price to book value ratio = Market value of equity/book value of equity
=> P/B ratio = 33/11 = 3 times. Option B is correct.
