(The year-end share price was $25 per share). Employee stock options for the purchase of 8,000 common shares at an exercise price of $22 per share. (The options are fully vested).
(a) Calculate the basic earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 2013. Round to two decimal places.
(b) Calculate the diluted earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 2013. Round to two decimal places.

Answer:

(a) Basic earnings per share = $2.70 per share

(b) Diluted earnings per share = $2.38 per share

Explanation:

(a) Calculate the basic earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 2013. Round to two decimal places.

Basic earnings per share = Earnings / Number of shares of common stock .......... (1)

Where;

Earnings = $162,000

Number of shares of common stock = 60,000

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Basic earnings per share = $162,000 / 60,000 = $2.70 per share

(b) Calculate the diluted earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 2013. Round to two decimal places.

Diluted earnings per share = Earnings / (Number of shares of common stock +  Number of common shares for employee stock options) ............ (2)

Where;

Earnings = $162,000

Number of shares of common stock = 60,000

Number of common shares for employee stock options = 8,000

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

Diluted earnings per share = $162,000 / (60,000 + 8,000) = $162,000 / 68,000 = $2.38 per share

Answer: See Explanation

Explanation:

a. Calculate the basic earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 201

(Net income - Preferred stock dividend) / Weighted SVF shaers of the common stock outstanding

= ($162,000 - 0) / 60,000

= $162000 / 60000

= $2.70

b. Calculate the diluted earnings per share for Little, Inc. for 2013

= ($162,000 - 0) / (60,000+8,000)

= $162000 / 68000

= $2.38

One of the key decisions employers must make is the level of compensation provided to employees. Compensation is a significant cost, and employees are one of the most important assets of the organization. It is important that the organization makes and executes good strategic choices. To facilitate this process, many organizations think systematically about its job structures for compensation and pay levels for different jobs.
An organization's job structure consists of relative pay for different functions and different levels of responsibility. It defines, for example, the difference in pay between entry-level and management jobs, as well as different entry-level jobs in different departments, such as in production or accounting. Pay level is the average amount that an organization pays for a particular job and includes wages, salaries, and bonuses. Job structure and pay levels together form the pay structure, a policy that helps the organization achieve goals related to employee motivation, cost control, and the ability to attract and retain talented employees.
This activity is important because it will help you distinguish between the various factors that impact an organization’s pay structure. The goal of this activity is to classify decisions based on the factors used to establish a pay structure.
HR professionals develop pay structures for their organations based on such factors as legal requirements, company goals, and market forces. Drag each item into the appropriate column on the chart.

Jefferson Company, a commercial painting contractor, uses a normal-costing system to cost each job. Its job-costing system has two direct-cost categories (direct materials and direct labor) and one indirect-cost pool called overhead costs. To each job, Jefferson allocates overhead at a budgeted rate of 80% of direct labor costs.

Jefferson provides the additional information for February:

1. As of February 1, Job A21, the only job in process, had incurred direct material costs of $30,000 and direct labor costs of $50,000.

2. Jobs A22, A23, and A24 were started in February.

3. Direct materials used during February were $150,000.

4. Direct labor costs for February were $120,000.

5. Actual overhead costs for February were $102,000.

6. On February 28, Job A24 was the only job still in process, and it had incurred direct materials costs of $20,000 and direct labor costs of $40,000.

As each job is completed, its cost is transferred to the Cost of Jobs Billed account. Each month, Jefferson closes any under-or over-allocated overhead to Cost of Jobs Billed.

1. Give one example of a direct cost and one example of an overhead cost for a job undertaken by Jefferson Company.

2. Calculate the overhead allocated to Job A21 as of February 1.
