P_{t}=B_{t}+\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{K}\frac{A_{t+i}}{(1+R)^i}-\frac{B_{t+K}}{(1+R)^K}+\frac{P_{t+K}}{(1+R)^K}  \end{equation}  where $P_{t}$ is the stocks price at $t$, $B_{t}$ is the book value at $t$, $A_{t+i}$ the future abnormal earnings  in $t+i$, $R$ the discount rate and rate,  $P_{t+K}$ and $B_{t+K}$  the terminal value. market value and book value of equity in $t+K$ respectively.  It is now obvious that a market value of equity superior to its book value necessarely implies that the company generates abnormal earnings i.e. that its\textit{ROE} is above the shareholder expected return (Cost Of Equity).  Abnormal earnings are the ability of the company to generate more earnings than what  investors are asking for.
