Explanation:

Step 1 Calculate the Basic Earnings Per Share

Basic Earnings Per Share = Income Attributable to Common Stockholders / Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks

Income Attributable to Common Stockholders

Net income $902000

less Interest on bonds ($2020000*5%) * 75% ($75,750)

Income Attributable to Common Stockholders $826,250

Basic Earnings Per Share = $826,250 / 197000

=$4,19

Step 1 Calculate the Diluted Earnings Per Share

Diluted Earnings Per Share = Adjusted Income Attributable to Common Stockholders / Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks

Adjusted Income Attributable to Common Stockholders

Income Attributable to Common Stockholders $826,250

Add Interest on bonds ($2020000*5%) * 75% ($75,750)

Income Attributable to Common Stockholders $826,250

Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks

common stock outstanding 197000

add convertible bond ($2020000/$1000*10 shares) 20200

Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks 217200

Diluted Earnings Per Share = $826,250/217200

= $3,80
