Answer:

a. The book value and market value of the firm is  $1,200,000 and $49,200,000 respectively

b. The price per share and the book value per share is $24.60 and $0.60 respectively

Explanation:

a. The computation of the book value and market value of the firm is shown below:

The book value = Invested amount = $1,200,000

The market value = Invested amount + sales value

                             = $1,200,000 + $48,000,000

                             = $49,200,000

b. The computation of the price per share and the book value per share is shown below:

Price per share = Market value of firm ÷ Number of shares

                          = $49,200,000 ÷ $2,000,000

                          = $24.60

Book value per share = Book value of firm ÷ Number of shares

                          = 1,200,000 ÷ $2,000,000

                          = $0.60
