Sagot :

Answer:

1. a. Earnings per share:

= Total earnings / No. of shares

= (Addition to retained earnings + Dividends) / No. of shares

= (641,000 + 50,000) / 730,000

= $0.95

b. Dividends per share:

= Dividends / No. of shares

= 50,000 / 730,000

= $0.07

c. Book Value per share:

= Ending total equity / No. of shares

= 7,360,000 / 730,000

= $10.08

2. a. Market to book ratio

= Market price / Book value

= 30.60 / 10.08

= 3.06 times

b. Price - earnings ratio:

= Market price / Earnings per share

= 30.60 / 0.95

= 32.21 times

3. Price - sales ratio

= Market value of equity / Sales

= (30.60 * 730,000 shares) / 10,660,000

= 2.1 times
