Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of common stock shares = 200,000

Number of convertible preferred = 40,000

Number of convertible bonds = 45,000 ($1,000,000/$1,000 x 45)

Total shares = 285,000

Earnings = $600,000

Income tax  (180,000)

Net Income $420,000

Plus preferred dividend = $60,000

Adjusted net income = $480,000

EPS = $480,000/285,000

= $1.68
