Compute Earning per share from following information-

₹2.50

The correct answer is option 4- ₹2.50.

• Net profit after tax = ₹1,75,000

• Equity share capital = ₹7,00,000

• Face value per share = ₹10

Number of shares = 7,00,000 ÷ 10 = 70,000 shares

Now,

EPS = Profit available for equity shareholders i.e. Net profit after tax /Number of Equity Shares

EPS = 1,75,000 ÷ 70,000 = ₹2.50
