Earnings Per Share (EPS)
EPS is calculated by dividing the net income by the number of outstanding shares. Assuming the
common stock represents the total shares outstanding and given the par value, we can estimate
the number of shares (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, n.d.)

Market Capitalization
Market capitalization is calculated by multiplying the current stock price by the total number of
shares outstanding.

Market Capitalization=16 ×200,000=3,200,000
These ratios provide insights into Weaver Corporation's financial health and performance in
2013. The Current and Quick Ratios indicate a strong liquidity position, the Debt-to-Total Assets
Ratio shows a moderate level of leverage, and the EPS and Market Capitalization offer a
perspective on the company’s profitability and market value respectively.
