The Privileges and Immunities clause is found in Article IV of the United States Constitution and it prevents the states to treat in a discriminatory manner to citizens of other states.

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Here are the questions:

a. Calculate the basic EPS amount for 2018.

b. Explain what is diluted EPS. Give one example of a security that can dilute the basic EPS.

First, we need to calculate the weighted average number of equity shares. This will be:

= (900,000 × 12/12) + (300,000 × 12/12) + (240,000 × 10/12)

= 900,000 + 300,000 + 200,000

= 1,400,000

We then calculate the earnings for equity shares. This will be:

Net income = 2,000,000

Less: Dividend on preference shares

= 500,000 × 5% = 25,000

Earnings for equity share = 1,975,000

EPS = 1,975,000/1,400,000

= 1.41

b. Diluted earnings per share (diluted EPS) is used to calculate the earning per share for a company's in a situation whereby there's a conversion of all the convertible securities.

An example of a security that can dilute the basic earnings per share is the preference shares which have been converted.
