Answer:

Earnings per share for 2017 = $1.707

Explanation:

Earnings per share relates to the specific period, that how much on each individual share the earnings has been during the period.

Therefore, if there is change in number of equity shares average is taken, for that.

Equity on 1 Jan 2017 = 160,000 shares

Equity on 31 December 2017 = 250,000 shares

Average = \frac{160,000 + 250,000}{2} = 205,000

Earnings per share for 2017 = \frac{Net\ Income}{Average\ number\ of\ shares}

= \frac{350,000}{205,000} = 1.707

Earnings per share = $1.71 (Rounded off)

The correct journal entry is shown below:

Equipment A/c Dr 700,000

= $140,000  

For three years, the depreciation would be

= $140,000 × 3 years
