    The computations are shown below:

    A. Earning per share

    = Net income : number of shares outstanding

    = $6,400,000 : 4,400,000 shares

    = $1.45

    B. Price earnings ratio

    = Current stock price : Earning per share

    = $44.50 : $1.45

    = 30.69

    C. Prices sales ratio

    Price sales ratio = (Market price per share) : (Total sales per share)

    where,

    Total sales per share = (Total sales) : (Number of shares)

    = $39,300,000 : 4,400,000 shares

    = 8.93

    So, the price sales ratio = $44.50 : $8.93

    = 4.98 times

    D. Book value per share

    = Book value : number of shares outstanding

    = $21,610,000 : 4,400,000 shares

    = $4.91

    E. Market-to-book ratio

    Market to book ratio = (Market price per share) : (book value per share)

    = $44.50 : $4.91

    = 9.06
