Expert Solution

(A) Price/Book ratio = Share Price/ Book Value per Share

Total Book Value = Total assets−Total liabilities

= 25,000,000 TL (Because Total liabilities is 0)

Book Value per Share = (25,000,000/ 1,500,000) TL

= 50/3 TL

So Price/Book ratio = 10/ (50/3)

Price/Book ratio = 3/5 = 0.6

(B) If Price/Book ratio = 1.2 = 6/5

Also Price/Book ratio = Share Price/ Book Value per Share

So 6/5 = Share Price/ (50/3)

Share Price = 20 TL

Market Cap = Share Price * Total number of outstanding shares

= 20 * 1,500,000 TL

Market Cap = 30,000,000 TL

(C)

It is advisable to invest in the stock if its P/B ratio is 0.6. This is because this shows that the company’s is undervalued as its book value is more than its market value. It means that the company has a potential to take its current share price to its book value per share.

While It is not advisable to invest in the stock if its P/B ratio is 1.2. This is because this shows that the company’s is overvalued as its book value is less than its market value. It means that the current share price of the company would drop down to the book value per share mark.
