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.
