If the industry average Price/Earnings ratio and Price/Revenues ratio for the recent fiscal year were 12 and 0.9 respectively. Estimate the IPO price for Detox Company using the Price/Earnings ratio and assuming that they will issue 22 Million shares."

Explanation / Answer

1:Total value of the company= 855000+8500000=9355000

Total number of shares= 1500000 +1500000 +4000000 =7000000

Value per share = 9355000/7000000= $1.336429

Value of your shares= $1.336429*1500000 = 2004643

2:P/E Ratio = Price per share/ EPS

12= Price per share/ (12m/22m)

Price per share= 12*12/22 = $6.545455
