Question
Porter Corporation owns all 30,000 shares of the common stock of Street, Inc. Porter has 70,000 shares of its own common stock outstanding. During the current year, Porter earns net income (without any consideration of its investment in Street) of $211,000 while Street reports $147,000. Annual amortization of $15,000 is recognized each year on the consolidation worksheet based on acquisition- date fair-value allocations. Both companies have convertible bonds outstanding. During the current year, bond-related interest expense (net of taxes) is $36,000 for Porter and $28,000 for Street. Porter's bonds can be converted into 7,000 shares of common stock; Street's bonds can be converted into 10,000 shares. Porter owns none of these bonds. What are the earnings per share amounts that Porter should report in its current year consolidated income statement? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) Earnings per Share Basic DilutedExplanation / Answer
Basic EPS :- Porter company
Consolidated Net Income = Porter's Reorted Income + Street's Reprted Income - Amortization Expense
= $211000 + $147000 - $15000
= $343000
Basic Earning per share = Consolidated Net Income / Porter shares outstanding
= $343000 / 70000 shares
= $4.9 per share
Diluted EPS - Street Company
Street Earning after amortization = $147000 - $15000 = $132000
Basic EPS = Street Earning after Amortization / Shares outstanding
= $132000 / 30000
= $4.4 per share
Diluted Earning Per Share = ($132000 + $28000)/(30000 + 10000)
= $160000 / 40000
= $4 per share
The Convertible bonds are dilutive and should be included, Because diluted earning per share is less than basic
earning per share.
Porter's share of street's diluted earnings :-
Porter's ownership percentage = 30000 / 40000 = 75%
Street's Earning for diluted EPS = $160000
Porter's ownership percentage = 75%
Earnings attributed to Porter Company = $160000 * 75% = $120000
Porter's Earning and shares for diluted EPS :-
Total Shares = 70000 + 7000 = 77000 shares
Diluted Earnings per share = $367000 / 77000 = $4.77 per share
