Explanation / Answer

a. Global's EBIT = Current Sales * (1 + Sales Growth Rate) * (Operating Margin

Global's EBIT = 186.7 Million * (1 + 14.8%) * 3.92%

Global's EBIT = $8.40 Million

b. Global's Income for 2016

Global's Income = (EBIT - Interest ) * (1 - Tax)

Global's Income = ($8.40 Million - $7.7) * (1 - 0.26)

Global's Income = $0.52 Million

c. Share Price = PE Ratio * EPS

Share Price = 18 * $0.52 Million / 3.6 Million

Share Price = 18 * $0.14

Share Price = $2.60 per share
