Exhibit 14.12 presents market and profit data for three companies. Using this data, compute enterprise-value-to-EBITDA and enterprise-value-to-EBITA for Companies 1 and 2. Is the net difference between Company 1 and Company 2 the same for both ratios? If not, why might this be? If Company 3 has nonoperating assets value at $50 million, what are the company's appropriate enterprise-to-EBITDA and enterprise-value-to-EBITA multiples?
