Explanation / Answer

EPS = Net earnings/ average common stocks

        = 127600/ (27600+35100)/2

         = 127600/31350

          = $4.07

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

P/E ratio = Price of stock/EPS

                = 13/ 4.07

                 3.19

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Payout ratio = (dividends paid/net earnings for the period)

                    = (23600- 4100)/ 127600

                     = .1528 or 15.28%

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Times interest earned = EBIT/ interest Exp

                                     = 211100/ 11400

                                      = 18.52 times
