Solution

Answer a.

Market Capitalization = Number of shares outstanding * Market price per share
Market Capitalization = 9.1 billion * $32.55
Market Capitalization = $296.2 billion

Market-to-book Ratio = Market Capitalization / Book value of equity
Market-to-book Ratio = $296.2 billion / $97.6 billion
Market-to-book Ratio = 3.03

Answer b.

Book debt-equity ratio = Total Debt / Book value of equity
Book debt-equity ratio = $201.5 billion / $97.6 billion
Book debt-equity ratio = 2.06

Market debt-equity ratio = Total debt / Market capitalization
Market debt-equity ratio = $201.5 billion / $296.2 billion
Market debt-equity ratio = 0.68

Answer c.

Enterprises Value = Market capitalization + Total debt - Cash
Enterprises Value = $296.2 billion + $201.5 billion - $102.5 billion
Enterprises Value = $395.2 billion
