Answer:

(a) $546,300

(b) $12.88

Explanation:

(a)  Earnings available to common stockholders:

= Dividend + Retained Earnings

= 33,300 + 513,000

= $546,300

Earnings available to common stockholders means the amount available to distribute as dividend.

But the company need not pay full earnings as dividend. They may left some portion as retained earnings.

(b)  Earnings per share:

= Earnings available to common stockholders ÷ no. of shares of common stock

= $546,300 ÷ 42,400

= $12.88
