Calculate the Price/Earnings Ratio for 2016. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

Explanation / Answer

a. Earnings per share = Net income / weighted average shares outstanding

= 11445 / 12283 = 0.93

b. ROE = net income / share holders equity

= 11445 / 12283 * 10

= 11445 / 122830 = 0.093

c. Price earnings ratio = Market per share / Earnings per share

= 10 / 0.93 = 10.75.
