Option B fits perfectly,$1.61
Explanation:
Basis earnings per share is the total earnings attributable to common stock divided by the weighted average number of common stock in the year.
Earnings attributable to common is net income minus preferred stock dividends
Net income is $361,000
preferred stock dividend=20,100*$1.70=$ 34,170.00

Answer:
current market price = $953.29
Explanation:
the market price of the bond = present value of the face value + present value of coupon payments
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 3.865%)¹⁸ = $505.31
PV of coupon payments = $35 x 12.79935 (PV annuity factor, 3.865%, 18 periods) = $447.98
current market price = $505.31 + $447.98 = $953.29
