Answer:

1. $5.3

2. 17.95

Explanation:

1. Earning per share today = $5.1

Earning growth in one year = 4%

So, the EPS one-year ahead:

= Earning per share today × (1 +  Earning growth in one year)

= 5.1 × 1.04

= $5.3

2 . Market price one-year ahead:

= Current price × (1 + expected return on Parador stock)

= 78 × 1.22

= $95.16.

P/E Ratio = Market price per share ÷ Earning per share

P/E Ratio = 95.16 ÷ 5.3

                = 17.95
