I happen to think that Keurig is worth acquiring at 28 times their trailing four quarter earnings (it might be a bit high, but that's the price of acquiring). However, you're partially mistaken on those numbers.
Marriott had $753m in net income in 2014. You're referring to just one quarter. They've done $854m in net income the last four quarters (20.8 pe ratio or so).
