Answer:

$2.20 per stock

Explanation:

Earnings per share (EPS) = (net income - preferred dividends) / weighted average stocks outstanding

  • net income = $450,000
  • weighted average stocks outstanding = 200,000
  • preferred stock dividends = $10,000

earnings per share = ($450,000 - $10,000) / 200,000 = $440,000 / 200,000 = $2.20 per stock
