Common Stock
Book Value vs. Market Value
Book value is a backward looking measure. It
tells us how much capital the firm has raised from
shareholders in the past. It does not measure the
value that shareholders place on those shares
today. The market value of the firm is forward
looking, it depends on the future dividends that
shareholders expect to receive.
