a.

Earnings per share = Net Income ÷ Average number of common shares outstanding*

= $10,000 ÷ 100,000 shares = $0.10 per share (rounded)

*Number of common shares outstanding = Common stock ÷ Par value

= $300,000 ÷ $3 per share = 100,000 shares

 

b.

Price-earnings ratio = Market price per share ÷ Earnings per share

= $0.97 ÷ $0.10 = 9.70 (rounded)

 

c.

Dividend payout ratio = Dividends per share* ÷ Earnings per share

= $0.05 ÷ $0.10 = 50.0% (rounded)

*Dividends per share = Common dividends ÷ Common shares (see above)

= $5,000 ÷ 100,000 shares = $0.05 per share (rounded)

 

d.

Dividend yield ratio = Dividends per share* ÷ Market price per share

= $0.05 ÷ $0.97 = 5.15% (rounded)

*Dividends per share = Common dividends ÷ Common shares (see above)

= $5,000 ÷ 100,000 shares = $0.05 per share (rounded)

 

e.

Book value per share = Common stockholders' equity ÷ Number of common shares outstanding*

= $775,000 ÷ 100,000 shares = $7.75 per share (rounded)

*Number of common shares outstanding = Common stock ÷ Par value

= $300,000 ÷ $3 per share = 100,000 shares
