    Hi,

    In example 2 of EPS which is on page 77 of the notes, shouldn’t the fraction used be 2/3 since the numerator should be the shares before the bonus issue and the denominator should be the shares after bonus issue? How did the fraction in the working become 3/2?

    If what I am saying isn’t right, could you please explain why and give me a formula that I can learn for the exam?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,

    I think I’ve answered this question previously on this thread – https://opentuition.com/topic/eps-example-2/

    Please let me know if it doesn’t answer your question.

    Thanks
