    Explanation:

    Baxter & Baxter

    Market value share / Percentage of profit margin * (Total assets * Total asset turnover) / Outstanding shares

    Where:

    Market value shares=28

    Percentage of profit margin = 71%

    Total assets = 710,000

    Total asset turnover=1.29

    Outstanding shares = 45,000

    Hence:

    Price-earnings ratio =

    $28/[0.071 * ($710,000 * 1.29) ]/45,000

    =19.38
