Explanation / Answer
A) Net Income = $350,000,000
Preferred Dividend Paid = $50,000,000
Basic Earnings per Share = (Net Income - Preferred Dividend)/average shares outstanding
Average shares outstanding = (Shares At the beginning + Shares at the end)/2
= (90,000,000 + 100,000,000)/2
= 190,000,000/2 = 95,000,000
Basic EPS = ($350,000,000 - $50,000,000)/95,000,000
= $300,000,000/95,000,000 = $3.16
B) Diluted EPS = (Net Income - Preferred Dividend)/(Outstanding shares + diluted shares)
Diluted Shares = Options issued - Value of options in current shares
Options issued = 1,000,000 at $50/share
Amount paid = 0ptions issued x exrcise price per share
= 1,000,000 x $50 = $50,000,000
Value of options in current shares = amount paid to exercise options/avg market price
= $50,000,000/$75 = 666,667
Diluted shares = Options Issued - Value of options issued in current shares
= 1,000,000 - 666,667 = 333,333
Diluted EPS = ($350,000,000 - $50,000,000)/(95,000,000 + 333,333)
= $300,000,000/95,333,333
= $3.17
C)
Earnings per share (EPS) is the portion of a company's profit available for common stockholders allocated to each outstanding share of common stock. Earnings per share serves as an indicator of a company's profitability. EPS is calculated as:
EPS = (Net Income - Preferred Dividens) / Average Outstanding Shares
D)
Antidilutive securities refers to financial instruments that are not in the form of common stock, but when converted into common stock will increase earnings per share.
