Answer:

B. $2,732,000.

Explanation:

After-tax operating income (ATI) = $3,200,000

Weighted-average cost of capital (WA) = 9%

Assets (A) = $7,000,000

Liabilities (L) = $1,800,000

Economic value added (EVA) is given by:

[tex]EVA = ATI -[(A-L)*WA]\\EVA = \$3,200,000 - [(\$7,000,000-\$1,800,000)*0.09]\\EVA = \$2,732,000[/tex]

Endotrope's economic value added is $2,732,000
