Answer:
B) $90,000
Explanation:
The market value of the unlevered equity can be calculated using the following formula:
Expected value = Σpx
Where:
p = the probability of each outcome
=50% in this case for both weak and strong economy.
x = the present value of cash flow for each outcome which is $90,000 in case of weak economy and $117,000 in case of strong economy.
Expected value= 0.50(90,000(1+15%)^-1)+0.50(117,000(1+15%)^-1)
=0.50(78,260.87)+0.50(101,739.13)
=$90,000
So the answer is B) $90,000
