PE of S&P500 is 36 according to GAAP, not 22>> Companies Pollute Earnings Reports, Leaving P/E Ratios Hard to Calculate ...More than 300 companies in the S&P 500 now exclude some ordinary expenses, as defined by GAAP, from the operating-earnings numbers they feed to investors and analysts, a Wall Street Journal analysis shows.
