Enterprise Values

Apple:
Enterprise Value = Outstanding Shares * Individual Share Cost - Short-Term Debt
54,215,332 * 22 -9,353,870 = $1,183,383,434

Microsoft:
Enterprise Value = Outstanding Shares * Individual Share Cost - Short-Term Debt
3,095,000 * 22= $68,090,000

Apple's enterprise value was ~17.4% higher than Microsoft's enterprise value.

  1. You need to ADD the long term debt to get to the Enterprise Value as the valuation is the total amount of value investors ascribe to the entire company--and the amount of long term debt that investors will buy is an indication of this value.
