Total earning : $4.9

Total No of Share : 1.6 Million

Earning pr share : Total earning/Total No of share

EPS : $4.9/1.6 = $3.0625

Discount Rate(Ke) : 16%

Price Earning ratio: 1/Discount rate (Ke)

PE Ratio: 1/16% = 6.25

Market price per share : Earning per share*Price earning Ratio

MPS : $3.0625*6.25 = $19.14

B. Total earning Increased by : $5.8

Existing Earning : $4.9 + $5.8 = $10.7
