Answer:
$5.31
Explanation:
Earnings per share = Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock ÷ Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks Outstanding
<em>where,</em>
<u>Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock is :</u>
Net Income                                                                       $650,000
Less Preference Stock dividend                                       ($71,000)
Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock      $579,000
<em>and</em> 
<u>Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks Outstanding :</u>
Common Stocks at Beginning outstanding                                  100,000
Stocks Sold at Weighted Average (18,000 / 2)                                9,000
Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks Outstanding    109,000
therefore,
Earnings per share = $579,000 ÷  109,000
                                 = $5.31
The 2021 basic earnings per share is $5.31.
