Answer:

the new earnings per share will be 231 cents

Explanation:

Earnings per share is Earnings attributable to each Common Share.

Earnings Per Share = Earnings attributable to Holders of Common Stock/ Weighted Average Number of Common Shares

= $1,575 million/ (700 million-250/10000×700 million)

= $1,575 million/(700 million-17,2 million)

= 231 cents

Answer:

Earnings per share is $2.31

Explanation:

value of one share=$10,000 million/700 million=$14.29

25% of excess cash =25%*$1000 million=$250 million

Number of shares repurchased=$250 million/$14.29=17.5 million

Outstanding shares after share repurchase=700 million-17.5 million

=682.5 million

Earnings per share =earnings attributable to common stock/number of common stock

earnings stands at $1,575 million

number of common stock 682.5 million

Earnings per share=1,575 million/682.5 million

Earnings per share=$2.31 or 231 cents

The new earnings per share is $2.31 or 231 cents as shown in the step by step analysis above.

natita [175]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. $1,300,000

Explanation:

The computation of unearned service revenue is shown below:

= Outstanding service contracts for 2011 + Outstanding service contracts for 2012 + Outstanding service contracts for 2013

= $380,000 + $570,000 + $350,000

= $1,300,000

The other amounts are not considered in the computation part. So, it is ignored.

Thus, the $1,300,000 is the amount which should be reported as Unearned Service Revenues in Eaton's December 31, 2010 balance sheet.

Hence, the correct answer is b. $1,300,000
