It's a ridiculous question for someone who has followed the markets and Berkshire. Why ask people to do what you could do? The "most current book value" is in the Sep 30, 2015 10-Q, but even that's useless.

You would want to adjust for buying PCP, which by accounting standards would lower the "most current book value". It is set to close Jan 29.

And that would not appear until the Mar 31, 2016 report, in late April.

Bloomberg Businessweek had an article about Berkshire getting close to 1.2 book value, so you're not the first one to think if it.

Yahoo shows PCP trades at 2.82 book value. I don't know the merger accounting treatment for the PCP shares Berkshire already owns.
