(a)-Expected stock price one year from now
Current Year EPS = Net Income / Number of shares outstanding
= $95,000,000 / 5,500,000 Shares
= $17.2727 per share
Price-Earnings Ratio = Market Price per share / EPS
= $17.50 per share / $17.2727 per share
= 1.0132 Times
EPS for the coming year = Expected Net Income / Number of shares outstanding
= ($95,000,000 x 125%) / 8,300,000 Shares
= $118,750,000 / 8,300,000 Shares
= $14.3072 per share
Therefore, the Expected stock price one year from now
= EPS for the coming year x Price-Earning Ratio
= $14.3072 per share x 1.0132 Times
= $14.50 per share
“Hence, the Expected stock price one year from now will be $14.50”
(b)-Market-to-Book Ratio
Book Value per share = Market Value of Equity / Number of shares outstanding
= $24,070,000 / 8,300,000 Shares
= $2.90 per share
Therefore, the Market-to-Book Ratio = Market Value per share / Book Value per share
= $52.08 per share / $2.90 per share
= 17.96 Times
“Hence, the Market-to-Book Ratio will be 17.96 Times”

(d)-The true statement regarding market value ratio is “Companies with high research and development (R&D) expenses tends to have high P/E ratios“
