Explanation:

Basic Earnings per share = Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock / Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks

Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock Calculation :

Net income                                                                          $172,905

Less Preference Dividend (24,000× $50×7%)                  ($84,000)

Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock         $88,905

Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks Calculation :

Common Stocks 1 January 2021                                          100,000

Add Common Stocks February 28, 2021                               13,333

Less Common Stocks September 30, 2021                          (3,640)

Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks                109,693

Basic Earnings per share = $88,905 / 109,693

                                           = $0.81

Diluted Earnings per share = Adjusted Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock / Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks

Adjusted Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock Calculation :

Net income                                                                          $172,905

Less Preference Dividend (24,000× $50×7%)                  ($84,000)

Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock         $88,905

Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks Calculation :

Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks                109,693

Add  incentive stock options                                                 42,000

Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks 151,693

Diluted Earnings per share = $88,905 / 151,693

                                               = $0.59
