Answer:
-3 million dollars
Explanation:
we have EVA = economic value added
to ge the EVA, we use this formula :
(operating return on the assets - cost of the total capital) multiplied by the total assets
total assets = 100 million
operating return = 12 percent
cost of capital = 15 percent
the EVA = 12% - 15% * 100000000
= -0.03 * 100000000
= -3,000,000 dollars
