| Price-to-Sales Ratio (Price/Sales) | |
 A ratio for valuing a stock relative to its own past performance, other companies or the market itself. Price to sales is calculated by dividing a stock's current price by its revenue per share. Also known as "PSR". |

 The price-to-sales ratio can vary substantially across industries; therefore, it's useful mainly when comparing similar companies. Because it doesn't take into account any expenses or debt, the ratio is somewhat limited in the story it tells. |
