<u>Calculation of Edelman's market/book ratio:</u>
The market/book ratio is calculated with the help of following formula:
Market/book ratio = Market price per share / Book value per share
The Book value per share can be calculated as follows;
Book value per share =Common Equity/ Shares of common stock outstanding
= 8,000,000,000 /500,000,000
= 16
Hence ,
Market/book ratio = 25/16 = 1.56
Hence, Edelman's market/book ratio is <u>1.56</u>
