Herbvic, These are the formulae I used in the spreadsheet: PE (E12 is price, F12 is earnings): =E12/F12 Growth (G12 is 2yr earnings, F12 is last yr earnings, H12 is the fraction of the two years*--I'll explain this below): =(((G12/F12)^(1/H12))-1)100 PEG (I12 is backward PE, K12 is growth): =I12/K12 ** If you go to Zack's or other stock research sites, you will always get a 2 year earnings forecast. But the "2 years" is for a certain financial year. Apple's financial year happens to end in Sept, so it's 2 years is really 2 years. But Dell's, for example, ends in January, so its 2 year forecast is really 1.25 years. All this stuff is explained on Motley Fool: fool.com rhet0ric
