Enterprise value = $ 3,033

Explanation:

The enterprise value is full value of business. It includes total equity and debt. However cash and cash equivalent are not included in it. Detail calculations are given below.

Enterprise Value = Market value of equity/common stock + Total debt - Cash

MV of equity = 24.5 * 118 = $ 2,891

Total Debt = 688/2*3 = $ 1,032

Cash = ($ 890)

Enterprise value = $ 3,033
