ANSWERS:
1. C
2. A
3. B
Profit or loss less Preferred dividends

Basic EPS =
Weighted average number of outstanding ordinary shares
320,000 – 8,000
Basic EPS =
500,000
Basic EPS = 312,000 ÷ 500,000 = 0.624
4. B

Basic EPS =
4,000,000 – (2,000,000 x 10%)

Basic EPS =
(5,000,000 ÷ 50 par)
Basic EPS = 3,800,000 ÷ 100,000 = 38.00
5. A (120,000 x 12/12) + (30,000 x 8/12) + (50,000 x 6/12) = 165,000
6. D

Basic EPS =
10,000,000 –0
Basic EPS =
(2,400,000 x 12/12) + (300,000 x 10/12)
Basic EPS = 10,000,000 ÷ 2,650,000 = 3.77
7. D
2015: [150,000 ÷ (240,000 x 125%*)] = 150,000 ÷ 300,000 = 0.50
*100% + (1 ÷ 4 stock dividend) = 125%
2014: [135,000 ÷ (240,000 x 125%*)] = 135,000 ÷ 300,000 = 0.45
8. D
Solution:
Option shares 9,000
Multiply by: Total exercise price 7
Proceeds from assumed exercise of options 63,000
Divide by: Average market price 9
Treasury shares assumed to have been purchased 7,000
Option shares 9,000

Treasury shares assumed to have been purchased (7,000)

Incremental shares 2,000
Add: Actual shares outstanding 50,000
Total weighted average shares outstanding 52,000
9. B
Solution:
The multiple potential ordinary shares are ranked in accordance with their dilutive effect as follows:
Incremental
Potential ordinary shares Incremental shares Incremental EPS Rank
earnings
a b c=a÷b
a. Convertible PS 60,000 10,000 6.00 2nd
(₱6.00 x 10,000); (10,000)
b. Convertible bonds 45,000 30,000 1.50 1st
(1,000,000 x 9% x 50%);
(30,000)
Diluted EPS is calculated by gradually considering the potential ordinary shares starting with the first in
rank as shown below:
Profit Ordinary shares EPS

a b c=a÷b
Basic EPS from continuing operations 425,000* 90,000 4.83
Convertible Bonds - (1st) 45,000 30,000
Diluted EPS #1 470,000 120,000 3.92 Dilutive
Convertible PS - (2nd) 60,000 10,000
Diluted EPS #2 530,000 130,000 4.08 Anti-dilutive
* Numerator for basic EPS, net of preferred dividends: (485,000 – 60,000) = 425,000.
10. A The contingent shares are ignored because the condition is not met.
