Answer:

$1.94

Explanation:

Computation of what 2011, earnings per common share amounted to

Using this formula

Net income-(Shares of 5%Ă—Par value cumulative preferred stock outstandingĂ— Shares percentage)/Shares of Common stock

Let plug in the formula

Earning per share of common stock =$400,000 – (10,000 × $100 × .05)/$180,000

Earning per share of common stock=$400,000-$50,000/$180,000

Earning per share of common stock=$350,000/$180,000

Earning per share of common stock=$1.94

Therefore the Earning per share of common stock will amount to $1.94
