| 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 Q2 2024 to Q3 2024 and from Q3 2024 to Q4 2024. |
| 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 Q2 2024 to Q3 2024 but then slightly decreased from Q3 2024 to Q4 2024. |
| P/S ratio | An rationale for the P/S ratio is that sales, as the top line in an income statement, are generally less subject to distortion or manipulation than other fundamentals such as EPS or book value. Sales are also more stable than earnings and never negative. | Apple Inc. P/S ratio increased from Q2 2024 to Q3 2024 but then slightly decreased from Q3 2024 to Q4 2024. |
| P/BV ratio | The P/BV ratio is interpreted as an indicator of market judgment about the relationship between a company required rate of return and its actual rate of return. | Apple Inc. P/BV ratio increased from Q2 2024 to Q3 2024 and from Q3 2024 to Q4 2024. |
