Answer:
$0.26
Explanation:
diluted earnings per share (EPS) = (net income - preferred dividends) / (weighted average outstanding shares + diluted shares)
net income = $330,000
preferred dividends = 2,000 x $500 x 8% = $80,000. Since the preferred stocks are convertible, they will be considered diluted shares. Therefore, no preferred dividends will be included in the calculation.
weighted average outstanding shares:
- January 1 = 700,000 x 12/12 = 700,000
- March 1 = 200,000 x 10/12 = 166,666.7
- total weighted average = 866,666.7
diluted shares = 2,000 preferred stocks x 200 = 400,000
diluted EPS = $330,000 / (866,666.7 + 400,000) = $0.260526247 ≈ $0.26

Yes Gordon can sue Floors n' Mores for the settlement of the contract keeping in mind that Gordon has made partial completion of the contract. Full payment would be determined based on the completion of the total work in line withe the plans submitted when the contract was signed

For Example if 75% of the work is in line with the expectation of Floors N More then Gordon should be paid total amount payable multiply by 75%.
Usually in such cases if the contract is fulfilled to certain extent it is preferred to close the contract based on the %age of completion because major reconstruction, buying of fixtures and furniture was executed. Hence major risks and rewards were transferred to Floors n Mores.
