Book Value:
Book Value represents the amount an investor or stockholder would get on each share holded in case of company’s liquidation. Every company possesses a certain amount of assets, but the whole amount of assets the company is possessing might not be its own integral capital. There might be debts, liabilities etc., upon the company. Thus, the formula of 'Book value' is- (Entire Assets of a Company - Liabilities and Debts) / Total Number of Shares.
​For example:-
Suppose a company is possessing an asset of ₹1000/-, now the company has a liability or debt of Rs. ₹250/- and the number of shares for the company is 100. Thus (1000-250)/100= ₹7.5/- (Thus, ₹7.5/- is the amount the shareholders of a company might get when the mentioned company gets liquidated).
