Respuesta :

Answer:

$2.50

Explanation:

The Earnings Per Share of a company is determined by using the formula:

EPS= (Net Income of the Company - Dividend to Preferred Shareholders) ÷ Average Outstanding Shares of the Company

Since there is no dividend to preferred shareholders

EPS= Net Income of the Company - ÷ Average Outstanding Shares of the Company

=30000 ÷ 12000

=$2.50
