    I would like to know what market price to use to calculate the PE ratio. is it the current price at the time of submission or historical price at end of fiscal year.

    Thanks for the reply @derricklau
    This is exactly what I did but my marker gave the following comment:
    “You also compare EPS in absolute terms”
    Not quite sure what this means.
    Any ideas??
