Question

The information below pertains to Barkley Company for 2015.


There were no changes during 2015 in the number of common shares, preferred shares, or convertible bonds outstanding. There is no treasury stock. The company also has common stock options (granted in a prior year) to purchase 79,000 shares of common stock at $20 per share.

(a) Compute basic earnings per share for 2015. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. $2.55.)


(b) Compute diluted earnings per share for 2015. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. $2.55.)

Your answer is partially correct. Try again.

Explanation / Answer

(a)

EPS= Net income available for shareholders / Number of shares outstandint

Net income Availble for shr : ($1,228,000-(4,095,000*0.07) =$941,350

Number of shares outstanding =6,052,000/10 =605,200

therefore EPS= 941,350/605,200 =$1.55

(b)

Diluted EPS= (Net income – Preferred dividends) + Interest savings (net of tax) / Average common shares + Potentially dilutive common shares

Net income :$1,228,000

Preferred dividend : 4,095,000*0.07 = $286,650

Interest of savings :2,342,000*0.09*(1-0.4) =$126,468

potentially dialluted shares

a. 2,342,000/1000*40 =93680 shares/ bonds

b. Market price - average price / Market price * Number of option shares

    30-20/30*79000=26333.33 rounded to 26333 shares

Therefore Diluted EPS=

(1,228,000-286,650)+126,468/605,200+93680+26333

=814882/725213 =$1.12
