An analyst gathers the following information about Meyer, Inc.: Meyer has 1,000 shares of 8% cumulative preferred stock outstanding, with a par value of $100 and liquidation value of $110. Meyer has 20,000 shares of common stock outstanding, with a par value of $20. Meyer had retained earnings at the beginning of the year of $5,000,000. Net income for the year was $70,000. This year, for the first time in its history, Meyer paid no dividends on preferred or common stock. a. Calculate the total book value of Meyer's common stock. b. What is the book value per share of Meyer's common stock

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below

a. Total book value is

= Equity par value + retained earnings + net income

= 20,000 shares × $20 + $5,000,000 + $70,000

= $5,470,000

b. The book value per share is

= Equity book value ÷ number of shares

= $5,470,000 ÷ 20,000shares

= $273.50

Hence, the total book value and book value per share is $5,470,000 and $273.50 respectively

the correct answer is - no.
