Basic and Diluted EPS differs we doesn't consider the possible convertible to equity shares for the calculation of Basic EPS but Diluted considers.
6 )Basic EPS = Income available to equity shareholders/ Weighted avg no of common shares outstanding
= Income available to equity shareholders is net income - dividend paid to preference shareholders
= 800000- 4* 20000= 800000-80000= 720000
= and shares 200000
Basic EPS = 720000/200000= 3.60 per share
7) Diluted EPS = Income available to equity shareholders/ Weighted avg no of common shares outstanding
The Net income would the same for both calculation but the denominator gets change, because of possible convertible shares to ordinary shares
= Income should increase because of converting 10% of bonds to ordinary shares, how means paying tax is less what it would be done before so 30000 is the tax amount to add Net income = 720000+30000= 750000
= Shares = preference shares to ordinary shares + 40000 ordinary shares
Bonds to ordinary = +4500 shares
The total shares is 200000+ 40000+4500=244500
Diluted EPS = 750000/244500 = 3.06
