Solutions

Expert Solution

For Year 2019

Basic Earnings per Share = Net Income available to Common Stockholders / Weighted Average Common Stock Shares Outstanding

Basic Earnings per Share = 72,600 / 43,625

Basic Earnings per Share = $ 1.66 Per Share

Notes

Net Income available to Common Stockholders = Net Income for Year 2019 - Preferred Dividends

Amount of Preferred Dividends = (7,000 Shares * $ 100 per Share) * 4.30%

= 700,000 * 4.30%

= $ 30,100

Net Income available to Common Stockholders = 102,700 - 30,100

= $ 72,600

Calculation of Weighted Average Shares

A B C=A*B
Period Number of Share Time Period Total
Jan 01 to May 01 36,000 4/12 12,000
May 01 to Dec 01 48,000 7/12 28,000
Dec 01 to Dec 31 43,500 1/12 3,625
Total 43,625

Notes

Time Period = Holding Period of Shares in Months / Total Months in a Year

Number of Shares from 01 May to Dec 01 = 36,000 + 12,000(New Shares Issued) = 48,000 Shares

Number of Shares from 01 Dec - 31 Dec = 48,000 - 4,500 (Shares Purchase Back) = 43,500 Shares
