Answer:

P/E Ratio = 12x or 12 times

Explanation:

We know that the P/E ratio is calculated by dividing the price per share by the earnings per share or EPS.

P/E = Price per share / Earnings per share

We already have EPS. We need to calculate the price per share.

It is given that book value per share is $20 and the market to book ratio is 1.2x or 1.2 times. Using the formula for market to book ratio, we calculate the market price per share to be,

M/B = Market price per share / Book value per share

1.2 = Market price per share / 20

20 * 1.2 = Market price per share

Market price per share = $24

So, P/E ratio = 24 / 2

P/E Ratio = 12x or 12 times
