The price-earnings ratio= 5.4 times

Explanation:

The price earning ratio is used to compare the price of company's share to its earnings.

EPS = Total earnings available to ordinary shareholders/Number of shares

 Total earnings available = Profit margin ×  Sales  = $30,627

Earnings per shares = $30,627 /7.500 = $4.0836

The price-earnings ratio = Price/EPS= 22/4.0836 =5.38

The price-earnings ratio= 5.4 times
