D A business has more net assets than it requires Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Overcapitalization refers to a situation wherein the value of a company's capital is worth more than its total assets. As such when future earnings are underestimated, the value of capital is lower than its total asset and is therefore not an indicator of over capitalisation.
