(b) Corporate Analysis
Wait — re-reading the passage: analyzing EPS, P/E ratio, and estimated future price is termed Financial Analysis.
Answer: (c) Financial Analysis
Explanation
The source passage explicitly states: "look at the financial performance of the company and certain key financial parameters like Earnings Per Share (EPS), P/E ratio, current size of equity etc. for arriving at the estimated future price. This is termed as Financial Analysis." Students must not confuse it with Corporate Analysis (which covers managerial capabilities, past performance vs competitors) or Industry Analysis (which covers sector-level factors).
