Shemrob ?

Sales = $5,000,000

Assets (at 5:1) = $1,000,000

Bonds  (40%) = $400,000
Stock = $600,000 = 60,000 shares

Contribution margin (at $2 per widget) = $2,000,000
Fixed cost = $1,500,000

EARNINGS BEFORE INTEREST + TAXES (EBIT) = $500,000

Bond payments (8%) = $32,000
Taxes = ($500,000 - $32,000) * 0.40 = $187,200

NET INCOME = $280,800

EARNINGS PER SHARE = $280,800/60,000 shares = $4.68


If any part of this step-by-step calculation is unclear, please
request a clarification and I'll explain it in more detail.

Best regards,
