2. Compute Riggs’s diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2017. There are no antidilutive securities. Round to the nearest cent.
Explanation / Answer
Solution-
Average market price (2017) = ($50+$56)/2
Average market price (2017) = $53
Exercise price = $19
Incremental shares = ((($53-$19)/$53)*125,000)
Incremental shares = 80,189
Convertible Bonds:
Incremental shares = ($2,000,000*1,000)*$15
Incremental shares = 30,000
Income = ($2,000,000*5%)*(1-35%)
Income = $65,000
(A)
Basic EPS = $825,000/300,000
Basic EPS = 2.75
(B)
Diluted EPS = ($825,000+$65,000)/(300,000+30,000+80,189)
Diluted EPS = 2.17
