Answer:
a) diluted earnings per share = 0
Explanation:
Diluted earnings per share (DEPS) is a recalculation of the basic EPS. The difference between DEPS and EPS is, EPS represents the current position of earnings per share. No changes in number shares and/or earnings in the future are incorporated in the basic EPS.
Whereas DEPS is a representation of not only the current position of earnings and shares but also includes the commitments an entity has already made whose occurrence may result in an increase/decrease in the amount of earnings and/or number of shares. For example, in the question Culver Company has issued 10-year convertible bonds which right now have no impact on basic EPS but if in the future these bond holders exercise their right of conversion, this would result in an increase in number of ordinary shares hence decreasing/diluting the basic EPS. The entities use DEPS to show shareholders the impact of such commitments on the basic EPS to improve their decision making.
So in 2017 none of the bonds were converted therefore no diluted earnings per share is calculated in 2017.
If all of the bonds were converted in 2017 the DEPS would have been calculated as follows:
The formula for calculating DEPS is as follows;
DEPS = (Net income + interest savings) ÷ number of ordinary shares + increase in ordinary shares as a result of conversion.
Tax savings as a result of conversion=$128400 ($2140000×6%). Because if bond holders convert into ordinary shares then Culver company will not have to pay them interest and hence the amount of interest is saved.
Increase in ordinary shares upon conversion= 29960 ($2140000÷$1000=2140 bonds. Each bond is convertible into 14 shares therefore, 2140×14=29960).
Now Lets calculate DEPS as follows;
DEPS = ($296000+$128400) ÷ 91000+29960
DEPS =$424400÷120960
DEPS = $3.5
Answer: $13000
Explanation:
From the question, we are told that Paula receives a nonliquidating distribution from Pell Corporation. Paula’s basis for her Pell stock is $10,000 and in exchange for her stock, Paula receives real estate with an $8,000 basis and a $15,000 fair market value that is subject to a $2,000 mortgage.
The amount of Paula’s basis in the real estate she received will be the net fair market value of the real Estate. It should be noted that this is the difference between the market value and the mortgage amount. This will be:
= $15,000 - $2,000
= $13,000
Answer: $3.46
Explanation:
Given the following :
Current share price (P0) = $90 per share
Required return on stock= 8%
total return on the stock is evenly divided between a capital gains yield and a dividend yield ;
Therefore, Required return on stock= 8% ;
4% capital gain yield + 4% Dividend yield = 8%
Growth rate = 4% = 4/ 100 = 0.04
D1 = D0(1 + g)
D1 = value of next year's Dividend
D0 = current Dividend yield
g = Constant growth rate
D1 = current stock price * g
D1 = 90 * 0.04 = 3.6
D1 = D0(1 + g)
D0 = D1 / (1+g)
D0 = 3.6 / (1+ 0.04)
D0 = 3.6 / 1.04
D0 = $3.46
