Explanation / Answer

Answer 1 : Basic Earning per share  

Basic Earning per share = BE/BS

= 25700/ 10600

= 2.42

Working Notes

BE = Income available for common stock holders

Net Income 50000

Less: Intt on Bonds

(100000*6.5%) 6500

-------------

EBT 43500

Less Tax paid @ 30% 13050

----------------

Income after tax 30450

Less Dividend paid to

Prefered stock holder 4750

------------------

Amount Available common 25700

Stock holder     -----------

BS    = Weighted avaerage no. of common stock

= Share at begining 9600

May, 1 Share issued 1200 weight 1200 *8/12 800

SeP, 30 Share issued 800 Weight 800*3/12 200

------------

Total no. of shares 10600

-----------------

Answer - 2 Dialute Earning Per share

= Net Income/Avg shares+other convertible instuments

= (50000-1950)/15100

= 48050/15100

= 3.18

Working notes

Avg Share = 10600

Prefered stock (1000*2) = 2000

Bonds (100000/1000*25) = 2500

--------------------------

Total shares = 15100

---------------------------

Incremental EPS of Preferred Stock = 4750/2000

= 4750/2000

= 2.38

Incremental EPS of Bonds = interest/ incremental no. of shares due to conversion of bonds

= 6500-1950/2500

= 4550/2500

= 1.82

Answer 3 Incremental Earning per share

Bonds = $ 1.82

Preferred = $ 2.38
