Respuesta :

Answer:

The trailing twelve month price-earnings ratio is 15.27.

Explanation:

Trailing price-to-earnings (Trailing P/E) is the sum of a company's price-to-earnings, calculated by taking the current stock price and dividing it by the trailing earnings per share for the past 12 months. This measure differs from forward P/E, which uses earnings estimates for the next four quarters.

Trailing P/E Ratio

= current share price/trailing twelve months earnings per share

= 15.27

Therefore, The trailing twelve month price-earnings ratio is 15.27.
