Answer #1

1. Basic EPS = (Net Income - Preferred Dividend) / Weighted average common shares outstanding
= (825000 - 0) / 300,000 = $2.75

2. Convertible bonds = $2000000 / $1000 = 2000
Convertible bonds were issued at and are convertible into R common stock at a ratio of 15 shares of stock to 1 bond.

R reports 125000 exercisable qualified stock options.

Each option allows the bondholder to acquire one share of common stock for $19 per share.

R purchased 32000 shares of treasury stock for $50 per share.

Dilutive effect on exercisable qualified stock option = $125000/50 x 19 = 47500
= 125000 - 47500 = 77,500

Diluted EPS = (Net Income + After tax interest saving) /  Weighted average no. of ordinary shares
= [825000 + 65000(200000 x 0.65 x 0.05)] / [300000 + 30000(200000 / 1000 x 15) + 77500 + 8000(32000/12x3)
= $2.14
