Answer 1

$4,650,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the formula below to calculate the enterprise value of Correct inc.

Enterprise value = Market value capital and debts - Cash and investments

= 100 million diluted shares × 37.50 per share + $1 billion of debt outstanding - $100 million cash

= $3750m + $1000m - $100m

= $4,650,000,000.
