For my opinion Earning par share refer to a full dividend after expenses. But if we have prefered stock we need to seperate prefered stock dividends and take its balance for common stock dividends by:
Earning per share = Balance after prefered stock dividends / Number of share
One more Dividends per share refer to balance for common stcok after we seperate balance after prefered stock dividends to both side, common stockdividends and retained earning.
Dividends per share = Common stock dividends / Number of share
is that right? if another have any ideas please let me know.
Thanks.!
