Respuesta :

Answer:

$ 926,072.80  

Explanation:

The company's market capitalization can be computed using the price-earnings ratio of 11.8.

Net income(earnings after tax)=sales* profit margin=$697,000*6.8%=

$ 47,396.00  

P/E ratio=market capitalization/net income

11.8=market capitalization/$ 47,396.00  

market capitalization=11.8*$47,396.00  

market capitalization=$ 559,272.80  

Enterprise value=market capitalization+debt-cash

enterprise value=$ 559,272.80+$408,000.00-41,200=$ 926,072.80
