I have an accounting question pertaining to QCOM. According to Yahoo, the Trailing P/E this quarter has doubled while the Forward P/E and market cap has stayed constant. Up until the current quarter Trailing and Forward P/E have been remarkably consistent

Isn’t the P in both trailing and forward P/E the same? Were last quarter’s earnings anomalously low? Given the Forward P/E hasn’t changed, that would indicate they are expected to be restored. Or did Yahoo get a number wrong?
