QUESTION: what is the EARNINGS PER SHARE FOR 2010?

Explanation / Answer

The data is taken from the income statement

Number of share outstanding = 10,000

Net income = $11,100

Preferred dividend = $500

Net earnings for common equity holder = Net income – preferred dividend

                                                               = $11,100 - $500

                                                               = $10,600

Earnings per share = Net income / Number of share outstanding

                              = $10,600 / 10,000

                              = $1.06

Hence, Earning per share for company is $1.06.
