Q

Convertible bonds phrasing: $500,000 in 6 percent bonds convertible into 10 shares for each $1,000 bond. 34 percent tax rate.

A

$500,000 total/ one bond is $1,000 = 500 bonds.

500 bonds can each be converted into 10 more so. 500 *10 = 5,000. Add the 5,000 to denominator.

Interest on bonds net of tax. 0.06(percent bond) * $500,000 * (1-0.34)(tax rate). Add this interest to net income for effect on numerator.

Q

Issuing a stock dividend

A

different than a regular dividend, they are issuing stocks in place of money so this changes the number of outstanding shares.

They are treated as if they were issued at the beginning of the year, so they are not weighted.

Q

When provided basic EPS and tax rate and asked which security is dilutive, these are the steps to take:

A

convertible bonds: find out how much the firm will save and how many new common shares are created. Example: if it says “Seven percent convertible bonds, issued at par, with each $1,000 bond convertible into 40 shares of common stock.” then take ($1,000.07(1-.3(tax rate))) = $49 saved if they are converted. But $49 per 40 new shares is 49/40 = $1.225 which can be compared to the basic eps provided.

Convertible preferred stock: example if it says “Six percent, $100 par cumulative convertible preferred stock, issued at par, with each preferred share convertible into four shares of common stock.” then the firm saves $6 (from 6% of $100) from not paying the preferred dividend. so saving $6 per 4 shares is 6/4= 1.50 which can be compared to the basic eps provided.

Q

Steps to calculate the impact that this item has on the numerator of the diluted EPS:

$5,000,000 face value 10-year convertible bonds outstanding on January 1. The bonds were issued four years ago at a discount which is being amortized in the amount of $20,000 per year. The stated rate of interest on the bonds is 9%, and the bonds were issued to yield 10%. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into 20 shares of Chan’s common stock.
Chan’s corporate income tax rate is 25%.

A

Under straight line depreciation the interest payment is calculated each year, and the company is not using the effective interest method.

  1. calculate the interest payment:
    $5,000,000*.09 = $450,000
  2. Add the discount amortization to the interest payment:
    $450,000 + $20,000 = $470,000
  3. Calculate the after tax effect:
    $470,000 * (1-.25) = $352,500 increase to the numerator
