    Stock price = $97.64

    Explanation:

    Earnings per share = (Dividend + addition to retained earnings) / Total number of shares

    Earnings per share (EPS) = $ (975000 + $2,925,000) / 675,000

    = $ (3900000/675000)

    = $5.777777778

    EPS = $5.777777778

    PE ratio = Stock price / EPS

    16.9 = Stock price / $5.777777778

    Stock price = 15.4 x $5.777777778

    Stock price = $97.64
