Answer:
Option B, $45,000, is the right answer.
Explanation:
Given actual sales = $450000
Actual units that is sold = 30000 units
Actual selling price = $15 per unit
Planned sales = $540000
Planned units = 45000
Planned selling price = $12 per units.
The difference between actual and planned sales due to unit price factor = change in units × change in price
= (45000 – 30000) × (15 – 12)
= $45000
Thus option B is correct.
EPS is Net Income attributed to shareholders divided by no. of shares outstanding. The dividend on preferred stock is subtracted from net income before calculating earnings per share (EPS). Following is the formula for Earnings per share

= $1.74
Therefore, earnings per share would be $1.74.
The last one would most likely be it
