Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

a. Plan A

b. Plan B

c. $638,400

Explanation:

The formula to compute the earning per share is shown below:

Earning per share = (Net income - interest) ÷ (Number of shares)

a. For Plan A

EPS = ($500,000) ÷ (210,000 shares) = $2.38

For Plan B

EPS = ($500,000 - $182,400) ÷ (150,000 shares) = $2.12

The interest is computed below:

= $2.28 million × 8%

= $182,400)

Plan A has higher EPS

b. For Plan A

EPS = ($750,000) ÷ (210,000 shares) = $3.57

For Plan B

EPS = ($750,000 - $182,400) ÷ (150,000 shares) = $3.78

The interest is computed below:

= $2.28 million × 8%

= $182,400)

Plan B has higher EPS

c. Break-even EBIT

(EBIT) ÷ (Number of shares) = (EBIT - Interest) ÷ Number of shares

(EBIT) ÷ (210,000) = (EBIT - $182,400) ÷$150,000

After solving this,

The EBIT would be $638,400

Weighted-average interest rate=0.0961*100

Weighted-average interest rate=9.61%
