Requirement
Based on this information, compute basic and diluted earnings per share for the current year.
Calculate the basic earnings per share (EPS) for the current year. (Round the EPS to the nearest cent, $X.XX.)
Basic EPS for the current year is $ |
Answer:
Calculation of basic earning per share:
Basic Earning per share = (Earning available for equity shareholders*/ Weighted average no. of outstanding shares**)
= $3,642,000 / 480,000
= 7.59 Per share
Notes:
*Earnings available for equity shareholders |
Net Income | $3,700,000 |
Less: Preference Dividend ($1,160,000 x 5%) | ($58,000) |
Earnings available for equity shareholders | $3,642,000 |
**The weighted average number of outstanding shares |
Outstanding shares at the beginning of the year | 450,000 |
Additional issued on Sept 1 (90,000 x 4/12) | 30,000 |
The weighted average number of outstanding shares | 480,000 |
Calculation of diluted earning per share:
Diluted earning per share = (Earning available for equity shareholders*/ Weighted average no. of outstanding shares**)
= $3,742,625 / 809,000
= 4.63 Per share
Notes:
*Earnings available for equity shareholders |
Net Income | $3,700,000 |
Less: Preference Dividend ($1,160,000 x 5%) | ($58,000) |
Add: Interest on bonds ($287500 x 6/12) (1-30%) | $100,625 |
Earnings available for equity shareholders | $3,742,625 |
**The weighted average number of outstanding shares |
Outstanding shares at the beginning of the year | 450,000 |
Additional issued on Sept 1 (90,000 x 4/12) | 30,000 |
480,000 | |
Add: Number of bonds convertible into shares | 329,000 |
The weighted number of outstanding shares | 809,000 |
