The correct answer is: A. market total value.
Market multiple is a financial ratio that compares the market value of a company’s stock to a specific metric, such as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). It is used to determine whether a company is overvalued or undervalued.
Market multiple is multiplied by firm earning before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization to calculate the market total value of a company. This is the total value of a company’s stock, based on the market multiple and the company’s EBITDA.
The other options are incorrect because:
- B. firm total value is the total value of a company, including its assets, liabilities, and equity.
- C. industry value is the total value of all the companies in an industry.
- D. taxes value is the total amount of taxes that a company pays.
