Answer:
The price earnings ratio is 19:1
Explanation:
The price earnings ratio tells us that how much price the investors are willing to pay for $1 of earnings provided by the company. The price earnings ratio is calculate by dividing the price per share by the earnings per share.
Price earnings ratio = Price per share / Earnings per share
The price per share is the market price of the stock.
The earnings per share is calculated using the following formula:
Earnings per share = Net Income / Weighted average shares outstanding
Earnings per share = 240000 / 60000 = $4 per share
The price earnings ratio = 76 / 4 = 19 / 1 or 19:1
Answer:
c. $45,000 liability
Explanation:
Fair Value of Plan Asset = Return on asset + employer contribution - Benefit paid
= $22,000 + $40,000 - $0
= $62,000
Projected Benefits Obligation = Service cost + interest cost
= $17,000 + $40,000
= $57,000
Pension asset / (liability) = Opening pension asset/ Liability + Plan asset - Projected Benefit Obligation - Amortization
= $2,000 + $62,000 - $57,000 - $52,000
= -$45,000
= $45000 Pension Liability
