X PLC HAS DIVIDEND YIELD OF 8% AND DIVIDEND COVER OF 2.4
WHAT IS PER RATIO FOR X PLC?
Please do not write in capital letters.
Divi yield = divi / MV; so MV = divi / divi yield
Divi cover = EPS / divi; so EPS = divi x divi cover
PE ratio = MV / EPS = (divi / divi yield) / (divi x divi cover)
= (1/divi yield) / divi cover
= (1/0.08) / 2.4 = 5.21
