a. Compute earnings per share and the P/E ratio for 20X1.

EPS = $1.75 per stock

P/E ratio = 41.43

b. Compute earnings per share and the P/E ratio for 20X2.

EPS = $2.10 per stock

Explanation:

after taxes net income $350,000 in 20x1

200,000 outstanding common stocks

stock price $72.50

after taxes net income $420,000 in 20x2

200,000 outstanding common stocks

stock price $83.00

EPS = net income / outstanding stocks

20x1 = $350,000 / 200,000 = $1.75 per stock

20x2 = $420,000 / 200,000 = $2.10 per stock

P/E ratio = stock price / EPS

20x1 = $72.50 / $1.75 = 41.43

20x2 = $83.00 / $2.10 = 39.52

the answer is: guns or butter
