Answer:

Basic earning per share = $1.8 per share

Diluted earning per share = $1.56 per share

Explanation:

As we know that basic earning per share = (Net income - preference dividend) / weighted average number of common shares outstanding

              =  (1500000 - 60000) / 800000

               = 1440000/800000

               = $ 1.8 per share.

As we know that Diluted earning per share = (Net income - Preference dividend) /( weighted average shares outstanding + convertible shares).

                         = (1500000-60000)/ (800000+200000)

                        =  1560000 / 1000000

                        = $1.56 per share
