At the beginning of the year, PZ company had 200,000 shares of common stock outstanding. On May 31, Share issued 50,000 shares of common stock. And Share issued a 15% stock dividend on June1. On October 1, the company issued 1,000, 10% bonds, each can be converted into 10 shares of common stock. In computing basic and diluted EPS, what is the weighted average number of shares to be used assuming the convertible bonds are dilutive?
选项:
A.
B.
C.
解释:
Basic shares = {[200,000 x (12 / 12)] + [50,000 x (7 / 12)]} x 1.15 = 263,542
Diluted shares = 263,542 + [10,000 x (3 / 12)] =266,042
请问这道题的basic EPS 为什么要乘以1.15? 括号里的是总的持有的股票数,乘以1.15后的含义是什么呢?
