Answer:

Earnings per share  = $6.5

Explanation:

Earning per share (EPS) is calculated as the the value of earning available to shareholders divided by the number of shares outstanding. Earnings available to ordinary shareholders is the residual earnings after all other priority claims of other investors have been settled.

Earnings per share (EPS)

= Total earnings available to ordinary shareholders / Number of shares outstanding

= $13,000,000/2,000,000 units

=$6.5

The amount of earnings per share generated by Nana Inc. =$6.5
