Basic EPS=$1.08                

Explanation:

Basic EPS= Net income after tax-preferred shares' dividend/Weighted average of outstanding shares

Net income after tax=$360,000*.7=$252,000

Dividend to preference shareholders=20,000*1.8=$36,000

Weighted average shares outstanding=200,000

Basic EPS=($252,000-$36,000)/200,000

Basic EPS=$1.08

Basic EPS is $1.62

Explanation:

Basic earnings per share=(Net income-preferred dividends)/weighted average number of shares

net income is $360,000

preferred dividends=$1.80*20,000=$36000

Weighted average number of common stock is 200,000

Basic Earnings Per Share=($360,000-$36000)/200,000

=$1.62  

From the computation the basic EPS year 2021 is $1.62

This implies that each share had earnings of $1.62 during year from which $0.55 was paid out as dividends and the balance $1.07 was reinvested in the business for further growth
