Answer:                   Ke = 8% = 0.08  

                              ROE = 10% = 0.10

             Expected EPS = $6

      Plowback rate ( b)  = 40% = 0.40

 Dividend per share (D) =  60%x $6 = $3.60

                                   Po =  D(1+g )/ke-g              

                                   Po = $3.6(1+0.04)/0.08-0.04

                                   Po = $3.744/0.04

                                   Po = $93.60

The current market price is $93.60

The price-earnings ratio = market price per share/Earnings per share

                                          = $93.6/$6

                                           = 15.6

The correct answer is C

Explanation: The price-earnings ratio is the ratio of market  price per share to earnings per share. In this scenario, it is important to obtain the market price per share using the above formula. Thereafter, the market price per share is divided by the earnings per share. There is need to calculate the dividend per share based on the retention rate of 40%. since the retention rate is 40%, the dividend pay-out rate will be 60%. Thus, dividend is 60% of the expected earnings per share. The estimation of growth rate (g) is based on Gordon's growth model, which is g = r x b. r represents return on equity while b denotes the plowback(retention rate).

Nishimatsu also had the habit of talking with flight attendants and other low level employees as a way of being well informed about the airline's operations.

He even decided to take a wage cut when the airline was in financial trouble, which is extremely uncommon for a CEO.  

Nishimatsu's behavior and traits made the employees have a very positive opinion of him, and they felt he was approachable and a true leader.
