Answer:
Given the data Bravo Inc owns all of the stock of Simon for 2021
Bravo reports income.
Net Income = $290000
Interest saved farm (net of tax) = 63200
Earnings per Diluted EPS = $290000 + 63200= $353200
Share outstanding = $80000
Assume conversion of bonds = $30000
Subsidiary shares for parents share of diluted earnings =
$110000
Share controlled by Garfun = 80000/110000 = 73%
Income to be included in parents diluted EPS = $353200 x 73% =
$257836
Earning for Parents diluted EPS:-
Net Income Bravo = 480000
