Footnotes:
(1)  in current money value (not deflated)
(2)  theoretical data that may be used to refine comparisons,  but the market does not take it much into account, often the contrary.
(3)  you may use estimated rates instead of current ones if you expect important forthcoming rate changes
(4)  the more narrow (=with very the least stocks) indexes such as the CAC or DJ,  are a reference for many operations. 
The stocks belonging to this "exclusive" club have a liquidity and notoriety above the whole market.
Thus their prices enjoy a specific quality premium, with images about 10-25 % higher than the whole market's image shown in B table.
(5)  the low image / high image bracket could  be the same in each scenario even if,  more often, images tend to be high when EPS
are rising and low when they are falling.
(6)  1 = very expensive,  2 = expensive,  3 = rather expensive,  4 = average,  5 = rather cheap,  6 = cheap, 7 = very cheap
