    The PE ratio is the market value divided by the earnings per share.

    The earnings yield is the earnings per share as a % of the market value.

    So the PE = 1/earnings yield, and vice versa.

    So if the PE ratio is 12, then the earnings yield = 1/12 x 100% = 8.33%
    If the earnings yield is 10%, then the PE ratio = 1/10 x 100 = 10

    I do explain somewhere in one of the lectures what we mean by the PE ratio and earnings yield.
