Explanation:

1. Calculation to determine the 2016 EPS

First step is to calculate the Total Movement of shares and WACSO

DateMovement of sharesRatioWACSO(no. of shares * Ratio)

1-Jan-16$606 million*12/12=$606 million

28-Feb-16 (18 million)*10/12=(15 million)

31-Oct-1618 million*2/12=3 million

30-Nov-16 72 million*1/12=6 million

Total678 million 600 million

Now let calculate 2016 EPS

Net income$1,200 million

÷Divided by WACSO600 million

=EPS$2.00

($1,200 million/600 million)

Therefore 2016 EPS will be $2.00

2. Calculation to determine 2017 Earnings per share

First step is to calculate the No. of shares outstanding after stock split

No. of shares outstanding as of 2017678 million

*Stock split2

=No. of shares outstanding after stock split1,356 million

(678 million*2)

Now let calculate 2017 EPS

Net income$1,200 million

÷Divided by WACSO1,356 million

=EPS0.88

($1,200 million/1,356 million)

Therefore 2017 EPS will be $0.88

3. Calculation to determine At what amount will the 2016 EPS be presented in the 2017

First step is calculate No. of shares outstanding after stock split

Wacso based on item no. 1600 million

*Stock split2

=No. of shares outstanding after stock split1200 million

(600 million*2)

Now let calculate the 2016 EPS be presented in the 2017

Net income1200 million

÷Divided by WACSO1200 million

=EPS1.00

(1200 million/1200 million)

Therefore At what amount will the 2016 EPS be presented in the 2017 will be $1.00
