Answer 1

a). EPS = Net Income / No. of common stock outstanding

= $61,391 / 55,000 = $1.1162

Price-earnings ratio = Market Share Price / Earnings per share

= $32 / $1.1162 = 28.67 times

b). Dividends per share = Dividends paid / No. of common stock outstanding

= $26,000 / 55,000 = $0.47 per share

c). Market Value = No. of common stock outstanding * Market Price = 55,000 * $32 = $1,760,000

Market-to-book value = Market Value / Book value = $1,760,000 / $356,223 = 4.94 times

d). PEG Ratio = P/E ratio / Earnings growth rate = 28.67 / 8 = 3.58
