Respuesta :

Answer:

a) $66.24

b) $77.28

Explanation:

The price to earnings ratio (PE ratio) is a valuation used by investors to determine if a stock is overvalued or undervalued.

Payment for stock is the product of Benchmark PR ratio and earnings per share.

Given that the earnings per share is $3.68 per share

a)  If the benchmark PE for the company is 18

Payment for stock = Benchmark PR ratio Ă— earnings per share = 18 Ă— $3.68 per share = $66.24

a)  If the benchmark PE for the company is 21

Payment for stock = Benchmark PR ratio Ă— earnings per share = 21 Ă— $3.68 per share = $77.28
