Question

On January 1, 2014, Lennon Industries had stock outstanding as follows. To acquire the net assets of three smaller companies, Lennon authorized the issuance of an additional 279,600 common shares. The acquisitions took place as shown below. On May 14, 2014, Lennon realized a $159,600 (before taxes) insurance gain on the expropriation of investments originally purchased in 2000. On December 31, 2014, Lennon recorded net income of $336,000 before tax and exclusive of the gain. Assuming a 43% tax rate, compute the earnings per share data that should appear on the financial statements of Lennon Industries as of December 31, 2014. Assume that the expropriation is extraordinary. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. $2.55.)

Explanation / Answer

Income before taxes and extraordinary item                                       336,000

Income tax @43%                                                                                       144,480

Income before extraordinary                                                                   191,520

Extraordinary gain net of tax (159,600@57%)                                      -90,972

Net income                                                                                                 282,492

Preferred dividend          75,600

Income allocatable to common before extraordinary 191,520 – 75,600              = 115,920

Income allocated to common after extraordinary 282,492 – 75,600                 = 206,892

Number of shares outstanding

259,200*12/12                 = 259,200

112,800*9/12                    = 84,600

136,800*6/12                    =68,400

30,000*3/12                       = 7500

Weighted average           = 419,700

EPS before extrordianry 115,920/419,700           = .28

EPS after extraordinary 90,972/419,700             =.22

Net income                                                                = .50
