The book value of a share of Simple stock is $18 per share

Explanation:

The computation of the book value of a share is shown below

Book value per share = (Total equity) ÷ (number of shares)

where,

Total equity = Total issued shares value + retained earnings

                    = $25,000 + $47,000

                    = $72,000

And, the number of shares is 4,000 shares

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would be equal to

=  $72,000 ÷ 4,000 shares

= $18 per share
