BOOK VALUE AND MARKET VALUE

BOOK VALUE: In simple terms  "If company sold all its assets and paid up all liabilities and remaining amount divided in all shareholders then value (amount) what investors get per share is book value."  For example : If company has a assets of 100 cr and liabilities of 95 cr and total number of outstanding shares (total shares of company ) are 1 cr.  Then  Book value of company= 100 cr - 95 cr                                           =5 cr. Now 5 cr divided by 1 cr (total shares outstanding) 5 cr ÷ 1 cr =5 Rs. (Booka value of shares) MARKET VALUE: " it will give you idea about how much premium or discount investors willing to pay." Market value = total outstanding shares × curren share price. Market value = 1 cr × 7 Rs (assume)                         = 7 cr market value  Market value pr share = 7cr ÷ 1cr                                        = 7 Rs. It means investors willing to pay 2 Rs of premium for every share of this company.

What is Stock Market and how it Works?

Image
Stock Market: Stock Market is the place where you can invest in a company which is listed on stock exchange. you can buy a stock (share) of a company and get some ownership in that company so if company make profit than your investment (share you bought) will increase and if company make loss then your  investment will decrease.  Lets see in simple way: if you bought a share of a XYZ company at 100 Rs and comckpany make some profit and demand of that particular stock is more then price of that stock will increase and you will earn the profit. why stock market needed? let me give you an example if you want to start a business but capital(money) required is  200000 and you have just 100000 so you go to your friend and try to convince his/her to join business and you promise him/hem to give 50% of partnership in your business. same thing but in big scale if any company wants a fund than they offers a partnership to public and give them some partnership in their company.
