P/E ratio The P/E ratio tells analyst how much an investor in common stock pays per dollar of current earnings. Apple Inc. P/E ratio increased from 2019 to 2020 but then slightly decreased from 2020 to 2021 not reaching 2019 level.
P/OP ratio Because P/E ratio is calculated using net income, the ratio can be sensitive to nonrecurring earnings and capital structure, analysts may use price to operating profit. Apple Inc. P/OP ratio increased from 2019 to 2020 but then slightly decreased from 2020 to 2021 not reaching 2019 level.
