Required: Compute basic and diluted EPS for the consolidated entity for 20x2. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) Basic earnings per share Diluted earnings per share

Poppy Corporation

Consolidated EPS

Basic Earnings per share = $67,600/10,000 = $6.76 per share.

Diluted earnings per share = $74,800/10,000 = $7.48 per share

Explanation:

With the conversion of the Seed's bonds, the interest of $20,000 would be included in its income.  And an after tax increase of $12,000 (after taking out tax of 40% on $20,000) would be added to the net income, making the net income to become $48,000 ($36,000 + 12,000).  The group's share of the net income would become $28,800 ($48,000 x 60%).  This amount is added to the Poppy's net income of $46,000 to get a consolidated net income of $74,800 after the conversion of the bonds.

Before the conversion, the consolidated net income is $67,600 ($46,000 + 60% of $36,000).

EPS becomes diluted with the conversion of convertible debt securities.  The effect for a consolidated entity like Poppy is the increase in the net income attributable to the holding company with the elimination of the interest expense.  However, the number of shares outstanding for the group would remain the same as before the conversion since it was the bonds of the subsidiary that was converted and not the group's.

metallurgy is your answer

note that it says metal. metallurgy has the word "metal" in it, and so is most likely your answer (and is your answer).
