Answer:

A.$2.99

B.$1.15

Explanation:

Frantic Fast Foods

A.Computation of the earnings per share for the year 20X

Using this formula

Earnings per Share=Earnings after Taxes/Shares Outstanding

Let plug in the formula

900,000/301,000

=$2.99

The earnings per share for 20X1 will be $2.99

B. Computation of the earnings per share for the year 201X

Earnings after Taxes= 301,000 * 1.28 = 385,280

Shares Outstanding=301,000 + 32,000 = 333,000

Hence,

Earnings after Taxes/Shares Outstanding

385,280 / 333,000 = $1.15

Therefore the earnings per share for 20X1 will

be $1.15 .
