    1. $5.3

    2. 17.95

    Explanation:

    1. Earning per share today = $5.1

    Earning growth in one year = 4%

    So, the EPS one-year ahead:

    = Earning per share today * (1 + Earning growth in one year)

    = 5.1 * 1.04

    = $5.3

    2. Market price one-year ahead:

    = Current price * (1 + expected return on Parador stock)

    = 78 * 1.22

    = $95.16.

    P/E Ratio = Market price per share : Earning per share

    P/E Ratio = 95.16 : 5.3

    = 17.95
