Answer:

It is 15.68 times

Explanation:

Price-Earnings Ratio = Market Price per share (MPS)/Earning per share (EPS).

Where EPS = $231,971 /55,100

                   = $4.21

Hence, Price-Earnings Ratio = 66/4.21

                                               =15.68 times

P/E ratio shows the expectations of the market and is the price you  pay per unit of current earnings.

The  ratio is as well being used for valuing companies and to find out whether they are overvalued or undervalued most especially by the investors.

Inputs

Beginning Work in Process                86,300

Add Units Started                              105,900

Total                                                    192,200

Outputs

Units Completed and Transferred   172,900

Units in Ending Work in Process       19,300

Total                                                    192,200

Explanation:

A physical flow schedule is simply a schedule of units introduced into the process and units outputs without expressing them to equivalent units.

Units Introduced must always be equal to units outputs in physicals terms.

<em>Units Completed and Transferred = Beginning Inventory + Units Started - Units in Ending Work in Process</em>

                                                        = 86,300 + 105,900 - 19,300

                                                        = 172,900
