The study describes a gradual calculation method, as well as the benefits of applying the coefficient. To analyze the feasibility of entering the stock exchange with the help of economic value added, it is necessary to compare its values before the placement of shares by the company and over the next few years after.

During the study of the WACC and EVA coefficients, the advantages and disadvantages of their use were identified. The weighted average cost of capital can be used for companies that are just planning an IPO. Advantage of EVA consists in a clear logic of calculation based on data posted in the public domain. In conclusion, a conclusion was made about the effectiveness of the initial public offering of shares for each of the companies, respectively.
