Answer 1

Answer:

$1.89.

Explanation:

diluted earnings per share = earnings attributable to common stockholder ÷ weighted average number of common stock holders

                                            = $340,000 ÷ (100,000 + 18,000)

                                            = $1.89

Shank's diluted earnings per share for 2019 would be $1.89.
