Answer:  

(a.) Earning per share = [tex]\frac{Retained earning + dividend paid out }{common stock}[/tex]

Earning per share = [tex]\frac{248000 + 187000 }{150000}[/tex]

Earning per share = $2.90 per share

(b.) Dividend per share = [tex]\frac{Dividend paid out }{common stock}[/tex]

Dividend per share =  [tex]\frac{187000}{150000}[/tex]

Dividend per share = $ 1.25 per share

(c.) Book value per share =  [tex]\frac{Book value of equity }{common stock}[/tex]

Book value per share =  [tex]\frac{4920000 }{150000}[/tex]

Book value per share = $32.80 per share

(d.) Market to book ratio = [tex]\frac{Market price per share }{Book value per share}[/tex]

Market to book ratio = [tex]\frac{80}{32.80}[/tex]

Market to book ratio = $2.44 per share

(e.) Price - earning ratio = [tex]\frac{Market price per share }{Earning per share}[/tex]

Price - earning ratio =  [tex]\frac{80}{2.90}[/tex] = 27.59 times

(f.) Price sales ratio = [tex]\frac{Market price per share }{sales per share}[/tex]

Price sales ratio = [tex]\frac{80}{\frac{4740000}{150000} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{80}{31.60}[/tex] = 2.53 times
