Ans:
Calculation of Earning Per Share:
Earning for equity share holders = $228849
Outstanding No of shares = 28487
EPS = 8.03
Calculation Of Diluted EPS:
Increase in earnings if bonds are converted into shares = [(2848*1000)*8%]*0.70
= $159488
Increase in No of share if bond are converted into shares = 2848*50 = 142400
Diluted EPS
= 228849+159488/28487+142400
= 388337/170887
= 2.27
Note: Increase in earning is saving in interest cost on bonds after taking tax effect.
