A.
Average outstanding common shares=(beginning common shares + ending common shares)/2
= (21800 + 38100) / 2 = 29950 shares
Earnings per share = (Net income - preferred dividend)/ Average outstanding common shares
= ($98000 - $3800) / 29950 = $3.14524 or $3.15 per share
B.
Price Earning Ratio = Market price / Earnings per share = $13/ $3.14524 = 4.13 Times
C.
Payout ratio = Common Dividend paid / Net income = (24000-3800) / 98000 = 20.61%
D.
Times Interest Earnings = (net Income + interest + Income tax) / Interest expense
= (98000 + 16700 + 27200) / 16700
=141900/16700
= 8.50 times
