Stock price would be equal to total value of equity divided by no. of shares outstanding. The total value of equity would be calculated as follows:
Total value of equity = corporate value – notes payable – long term debt – preferred stock
= $900 million - $110 million – 90 million – 20 million
= $680 million
The price of the stock would be:
Stock price = total value of equity / no. of shares outstanding
= $680 million / 25 million
= $27.20
