7.4.1.5.5. Market Value vs. Book Value of an Equity Security

For publicly traded stocks, the market value of the stock is the share price at which it is currently trading. The market value of the company is its market capitalization. As we have seen:

market capitalization = (market share price) × (number of shares outstanding)

The book value of a stock is the shareholders’ equity for common stock divided by the number of shares of common stock. This is called the stated book value of the stock. Stated book value is the theoretical amount of money left over for common stockholders if the company is forced to liquidate.

Wanted to thank Solomon Exam Prep for helping me Pass my Series 6 TO test yesterday Monday Feb 3rd, 2020. After failing with a competing exam prep I decided to use Solomon's materials and I feel it gave me the edge to pass - YES! Materials are straight forward and concise, I loved using the Exam Simulator on my Android phone and my tablet with ease and simplicity taking as many test questions I wanted, very user friendly. Customer Service is GREAT, Solomon helped extend my Study Guide materials which help me alot too. Thank You and I definitely recommend Solomon.

THANK YOU SOLOMON! I passed the SIE in December and Series 6 in February. I do not have a background in finance. The study materials prepared me wonderfully for the exams. I used the study schedule - took a ton of practice exams and re-read the material. Also, the testimonials were very encouraging, so I had to share that I had the same amazing experience. Thank you so much!

Solomon Exam Prep did it again! I passed the Series 63! Now, I'm 3 for 3 - SIE, S6 & S63 - all first try- thanks to the amazing study material! The practice exams are phenomenal!

I've used the Solomon exam prep materials for both my SIE and Series 6 exams and passed both on the first try! The audio materials are a lifesaver and a great resource to utilize, especially while driving. Also, your team is fantastic! I reached out through the "Ask the Professor" option while studying for the SIE and the response and additional help was exactly what I needed. I highly recommend Solomon! Thanks again!

I utilized the Solomon SIE and Series 6 Top-Off study guide package. I passed on the first time by following the exact recommendations. While the test is different than the study exam questions it covers the content in a detailed way preparing you to successfully pass the exam. Great product and customer service!

After failing the SIE with a different study company, I passed after using Solomon! I then passed the S6, S63 and S65 on the first try after studying with Solomon materials! I loved how easy the material was to comprehend and the practice tests were amazing! I felt well prepared for each test! Thank you Solomon!
