1. Prepare a single-step income statement for 2013, including EPS disclosures. (Round EPS answers to 2 decimal places.)

Note: See part 1 of the attached excel file for the single-step income statement.

A single-step income statement refers to an income statement that reports the revenue, expenses and the profit or loss of a company by using only one equation to determine profits.

The equation of the single-step income statement can be written as follows:

Net Income = (Revenues + Gains) - (Expenses + Losses)

In the part 1 of the excel file, we have:

Net income = $441,000

Earnings per share (EPS) = Net income / Number of common shares outstanding = $441,000 / 300,000 = $1.47 per share

2. Prepare a multiple-step income statement for 2013, including EPS disclosures. (Round EPS answers to 2 decimal places.)

Note: See part 2 of the attached excel file for the multiple-step income statement.

A multi-step income statement refers to an income statement that reports the revenue, expenses and the profit or loss of a company by using multiple equations to determine profits.

These equations are given as follows:

Gross Profit = Net Sales – Cost of Goods Sold

Operating Income = Gross Profit - Operating Expense

Net Income = Operating Income + Other income (loss)

In the part 2 of the excel file, we have:

Net income = $441,000

Earnings per share (EPS) = Net income / Number of common shares outstanding = $441,000 / 300,000 = $1.47 per share
