Earnings per share (EPS) is $3.00

<u>Explanation:</u>

Net income = $2,100,000

Preferred dividends = $75,000 (as the preferred stock is non cumulative, only include the dividends that are actually paid).

Numerator EPS = $2,100,000 minus $75,000

= $ 2,025,000

Denominator EPS = Weighted average of shares of common stockoutstanding.

1/1 - 12/31 -----600,000 into (12 by 12) = 600,000 into 1.04 = 624,000

2/28 - 12/31 -----60,000 into (10 by 12) = 50,000  into 1.04 = 52,000

7/1 - 12/31 ------(2,000) into (6 by 12) = (1,000)

Weighted average shares =   675,000

EPS = $2,025,000 by 675,000 = $3.00

Earnings per share (EPS) = $3.00
