Shortly before Eva Peron's death in 1952, Argentine astronomer Miguel Itzigsohn's admiration for the social and humanitarian activities of Evita, as she was called, moved him to name all five asteroids in her honor.
Eva Peron died of uterine cancer at age 33 after over a decade of national attention first as a leading radio actress and then as a social activist working for the improvement of living conditions for Argentine workers.
Eva Peron was planning to run for election as a presidential candidate with her husband, and thus become the first woman elected to lead a Latin American nation.
Valuation (1634 words)
EVA is a measure of dollar surplus value, not the percentage difference in returns.
In this case, the gain from the EVA in the current year may be more than offset by the present value of the loss of EVA from the future periods.
When the increase in EVA is accompanied by an increase in the cost of capital, either because of higher operational risk or changes in financial leverage, the firm value may decrease even as EVA increases.
