    Louieed Co ( Mar/Jun 16), Requirement “C”

    When calculation gearing ratio of Louieed co for each of the 3 option given on question examiner used Louieed co’s P/E ratio of 14

    If i use combined company’s P/E ratio then will my result be wrong???

    Combined company’s P/E ratio = ((14*296)+(15.9*128))/(296+128)=14.57

    You would be wrong, because the question specifically stated thatchy expect Louieed’s PE ratio to remain unchanged after the acquisition.
