Answer 1

Answer:

2.1

Explanation:

A firm has a stock price of $68.00 pet share

The firm's earning are $85,000,000

The firm has $20,000,000 outstanding

They have an ROE of 11% and a Plow back ratio of 70%

The first step is to calculate the EPS

EPS= $85,000,000/$20,000,000

= $4.25

P/E= $68.00/$4.25

= 16

g= 11×70

= 770/100

= 7.7%

Therefore the PEG ratio can be calculated as follows

PEG ratio= 16/7.7

= 2.1

Hence the firm PEG ratio is 2.1
