    Diluted earnings per share is $2.87

    Explanation:

    The extent to which the option would dilute the earnings per share to the extent of the difference between the option of price and the share market price.

    The shares that are capable of dilute the earnings can be computed thus:

    Market price-option price/market price*outstanding options shares

    market price is $36

    option price is $30

    outstanding options shares is 12,600

    ($36-$30) / $36*12,600=2,100 shares

    Diluted earnings per share=$602,000 / (208,000+2100) = $2.87
