Answer:

34

Explanation:

Price/Earning ratio (PE) = Price per Share ÷ Earnings per share

where,

Earnings per share = Net Income ÷ Number of Common Stock Outstanding

                                = (0.9 x $75 million x 0.06) ÷ 2.5 million shares

                                = 1.62

therefore,

Price/Earning ratio (PE) =  $55 ÷ $1.62 = 33.95 or 34
