Answer:

a. Earnings per share = $0.25

b. The book value per share = $7.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Balance Sheet

Assets Liabilities and Equity

Cash 14,000 Accounts payable 17,000

Marketable securities 4,000 Notes payable 8,000

Accounts receivable 10,000 Current liabilities 25,000

Inventory 39,000 Long-term debt 80,000

Current assets 67,000 Total liabilities 105,000

Machines 42,000 Paid-in capital 30,000

Real estate 60,000 Retained earnings 34,000

Net fixed assets 102,000 Equity 64,000

Total assets 169,000 Total liab. & equity 169,000

Income Statement

Sales 330,000

Operating expenses 297,000

Depreciation 25,000

EBIT 8,000

Interest 5,000

Taxable income 3,000

Taxes 990

Net income 2,010

Outstanding shares = 8,200

Market price of shares = $5.65

Earnings per share = 2,010/8,200 = $0.25

Book value per share = (Assets - Liabilities)Equity/8,200

= ($169,000 - 105,000)/8,200 = $7.80

b) The earnings per share is a financial measure of the how much is generated in net income for each share. The book value per share measures the equity value per share.
