Answer:
The firm's PEG ratio is equal to 5.93
Explanation:
A valuation metric for determining the relative trade-off between the price of a stock, the earnings generated per share (EPS), and the company's expected growth are referred to as the 'PEG ratio' (price/earnings to growth ratio).
Generally, a company with a higher growth rate would have a higher P/E ratio.
PE ratio = Stock price/EPS
= 23.4/1.36
PE ratio = 17.205
PEG ratio = PE ratio/ Earning growth ratio
= 17.205/2.9
PEG ratio = 5.93
Answer:
Over this 10-year period, the benefit to cost ratio is:
= 1.33.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cost of additional anti-pollution equipment = $2 million
Estimated useful life of the equipment = 10 years
Additional annual labor cost for equipment usage = $100,000
This gives a total labor cost of $1 million over the 10-year period.
Therefore, the total cost = $3 million
Savings (benefits) from lowering the air pollutants in the region = $4 million in medical expenses.
The benefit-to-cost ratio (BCR) = $4/$3 = 1.33
b) The Benefit-to-cost ratio (BCR) is a cost–benefit analysis that summarizes the value-for-money of a project by expressing the relationship between the project's benefits and costs in monetary terms. The BCR shows the future profitability of investment alternatives or options. It is normally expressed in terms of net present value.

- Weak form of efficiency is a another class of the semi-strong form of efficiency.
- If a market is strong form efficient, then it is also semi-strong and weak form efficient since all available information includes past prices and publicly available information.
- The semi-strong form also incorporates the weak form of hypothesis.
- They include event tests.
