Respuesta :

Answer:

$13,593,750

Explanation:

For computing the value of the firm, first, we have to determine the price per share which is shown below:

Price per share = Borrowing amount ÷ Number of repurchase shares

= $750,000 ÷ 8,000 shares  

= $93.75

Now the value of the firm would be

= Outstanding shares × Price per share

= 145,000 shares × $93.75

= $13,593,750
