Correct Answer:
a.Net income to ordinary shareholders
*As the bonds were issued during the year,the income and share effect both need to be pro-rated.
**As the bonds were converted during the year,the income effect is calculated only for the period that the bonds were outstanding.Similarly,the potential ordinary shares are pro-rated for the period the convertible security was outstanding.Factoring in the partial year does not affect incremental EPS because the same adjustment is made to the numerator (income effect)and denominator (share effect).However,the partial year adjustment does affect the calculation of diluted EPS,as determined below.
c.Sequentially compare the incremental EPS to the provisional EPS to determine diluted EPS
