Answer:

Monty Inc.

The earnings per share (EPS) is:

= $0.75

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Net income = $2,340,000

8% cumulative, non-convertible Preferred stock:

53,000 shares outstanding at $100 par = $5,300,000

Common Stock:

1/1 Shares outstanding          692,400

5/1 Issued for cash                 321,600

8/1 Treasury Stock                (160,800)

10/1 Stock Split                    1,706,400

Total shares outstanding 2,559,600

Net income                              $2,340,000

Dividends:

Preferred stock                            424,000 (8% of $5,300,000)

Remaining for common stock $1,916,000

Earnings per share = $1,916,000/2,559,600 = $0.75

b) Monty's EPS is the amount of net income that is remaining for distribution to common stockholders after deducting the preferred stockholders' dividends.
