Sagot :

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Given the above information,

Market value = Common stock outstanding × Stock price

Market value = 29,400,000 × $88

Market value = $2,587,200,000

Common equity = $488.95 million

Then,

Market to book ratio = $2,587,200,000 / $488,095,000

Market to book ratio = 5.30

Therefore, Strack's market to book ratio is 5.30
