Answer:

The firm's market value capital structure: $882,400,000.

Explanation:

The firm's market value capital structure is equal to the sum of its Market value of firm's equity and its Market value of Debt.

- Market value of the firm's equity (E): Outstanding stock x Stock price per stock= 9,600,000 x 44 = $422,400,000.

- Market value of the firm's debt(D): Price per bond x outstanding bonds = 1,000 x 115% x 400,000 = $460,000,000.

- Total value of the firm's capital structure ( V= D+E) : 422,400,000 + 460,000,000 = $882,400,000.
