Explanation / Answer

Net Income = Additions to Retained Earnings + Cash Dividends
Net Income = $359,000 + $181,000
Net Income = $540,000

Earnings per share = Net Income / Number of Common Stock Outstanding
Earnings per share = $540,000 / 150,000
Earnings per share = $3.60

Dividends per share = Cash Dividends / Number of Common Stock Outstanding
Dividends per share = $181,000 / 150,000
Dividends per share = $1.21

Book Value per share = Total Equity / Number of Common Stock Outstanding
Book Value per share = $4,860,000 / 150,000
Book Value per share = $32.40

Market-to-book Ratio = Share Price / Book Value per share
Market-to-book Ratio = $75.00 / $32.40
Market-to-book Ratio = 2.31

Price-earnings Ratio = Share Price / Earnings per share
Price-earnings Ratio = $75.00 / $3.60
Price-earnings Ratio = 20.83

Sales per share = Sales / Number of shares outstanding
Sales per share = $4,590,000 / 150,000
Sales per share = $30.60

Price-sales Ratio = Share Price / Sales per share
Price-sales Ratio = $75.00 / $30.60
Price-sales Ratio = 2.45
