(1) $1,247,000

(2) $4.3

Explanation:

(1) Net income available to common stockholders:

= Net Income - Preferred Shareholders

= $1,450,000 - $203,000

= $1,247,000

Therefore, the amount of net income is available to common stockholders for 2017 is $1,247,000.

(2) Company's Basic EPS for 2017:

= Net income available to common stockholders : weighted-average shares of common stock

= $1,247,000 : 290,000

= $4.3
