At December 31, 2018, the financial statements of Hollingsworth Industries included the following: Net income for 2018 $ 590 mil

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Basic EPS = $1.359 million

Diluted EPS = $1.195 million

Explanation:

For Basic EPS we need to calculate the number of shares outstanding

Shares as on Jan 1 = 450 million

Treasury shares on Sep 1 = 48 million × (4 months ÷ 12 months)

= 16 million

Number of shares o/s = Shares as on Jan 1 - Treasury shares on Sep 1

= 450 million - 16 million

= 434 million

Basic EPS = Net Income ÷ Number of shares o/s

= $590 million ÷ 434 million

= $1.359 million

For Diluted EPS,

Interest savings = 10% × $ 250 million

= $25 million

Adjusted Net Income = Net Income + After tax interest savings

= $590 million + [25 millions - 40(25million)]

= $590 million - $15 million

= $575 million

and weighted number of shares will include the bonds, that are convertible

Outstanding shares as computed = 434 million

Bond conversion Shares = 47 million

Total shares outstanding = Outstanding shares as computed + Bond conversion Shares

= 434 million + 47 million

= 481 million

Diluted EPS = Adjusted Net income ÷ Total shares outstanding

= $575 million ÷ 481 million

= $1.195 million

Josefina is the only seller of sopapillas in town. Last week, she sold 200 sopapillas, and the marginal revenue of the 200th sop

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Josefina is not maximizing her profits since she is making a loss of $0.25.

Explanation:

The marginal revenue is the total amount of revenue received from selling an additional unit of product while the marginal cost is the total cost incurred for producing an additional unit of product. The marginal cost and revenue can be compared to determine if producing and selling an additional unit is profitable or will cause a loss.

The profit/loss can be expressed as;

P/L=R-C

where;

P=profit

L=loss

R=total marginal revenue

C=total marginal cost

In our case;

P/L=unknown

R=marginal revenue per unit×number of units=1.50×1=$1.50

C=marginal cost per unit×number of units=$1.75×1=$1.75

replacing;

P/L=1.50-1.75=-$0.25

Since the marginal cost is greater than the marginal revenue, we can conclude that Josefina is making a loss of $0.25

At December 31, 2019, Oriole Corporation had the following stock outstanding. 10% cumulative preferred stock, $100 par, 109,261

solong [7]

Answer:

The company should report the 03 EPS figures on its 2020 income statement:

EPS continuing operations = $3.64

EPS discontinued operations = $(0.54)

EPS net income = EPS continuing operations + EPS discontinued operations = $3.10

Explanation:

<u>* Calculation in EPS continuing operations:</u>

EPS continuing operations = (Net income from continuing operation - preferred dividend)/No. of common shares outstanding

in which: Net income from continuing operation = Income from continuing operations before taxes * (1- tax rate) = 24,649,800 * (1-35%) = $16,022,370

preferred dividend = $1,092,610

No. of common shares outstanding = 4,099,840

EPS continuing operations = ($16,022,370 - $1,092,610) / 4,099,840= $3.64

<u>* Calculation in EPS discontinued operations:</u>

EPS discontinued operations = Net income from discontinuing operation /No. of common shares outstanding

in which: Net income from continuing operation = Income from discontinuing operations before taxes * (1- tax rate) = (3,399,100) * (1-35%) = $(2,209,415)

No. of common shares outstanding = 4,099,840

EPS discontinued operations = (2,209,415)/ 4,099,840 = $(0.54)
