On December 31, 2010, Bailey recorded net income of $300,000 before tax and exclusive of the gain.

Instructions:

Assuming a 40% tax rate, compute the earnings per share data that should appear on the financial statements of Bailey Industries as of December 31, 2010. Assume that the expropriation is extraordinary.


Answer:


Income before income tax and extraordinary items.............................        $300,000
Income taxes.........................................................................................       120,000
Income before extraordinary item........................................................         180,000
Extraordinary gain, net of applicable income tax of $36,000..............            54,000
Net income...........................................................................................        $234,000


Per share of common stock:
Income before extraordinary item*..........................................      $.41
Extraordinary gain, net of tax**..............................................          .18
Net income***.........................................................................          $.59

            Dates                          Share         Fraction                  Weighted
       Outstanding              Outstanding       of Year                       Shares        .
January 1- April 1                200,000          3/12                            50,000
April 1 – July 1                      260,000          3/12                            65,000
July 1- Oct 1                          340,000          3/12                            85,000
Oct 1 – Dec 31                      370,000          3/12                            92,500
            Weighted-average number of share outstanding         292,500


$300,000 – income tax of $120,000 – preferred dividends of $60,000
(6% of $1,000,000) = $120,000 (income available to common stockholders)
    *$120,000 ÷ 292,500 shares = $.41 per share (income before extraordinary gain)
  **$54,000 ÷ 292,500 shares = $.18 per share (extraordinary gain, net of tax)

***$174,000 ÷ 292,500 shares = $.59 per share (net income)
