Describe the P-E valuation method

Describe the P/E valuation method. Under what conditions a stock should be valued by using this method?
The P/E ratio denotes how much investors are keen to pay for each dollar of a stock's earnings. A high P/E ratio denotes that investors believe the stock's earnings will rise, or that the risk of the stock is low, or both.
Financial analysts frequently use a P/E model to estimate common stock value for businesses which are not public. Firstly, analysts compare the P/E ratios of similar companies within an industry to determine an appropriate P/E ratio for companies in that industry. Secondly, analysts calculate correct stock price for firms within the industry by multiplying each of firm's earnings per share (EPS) by the industry average P/E ratio.
