| jainrajeshv | I m confused now, when we are calculign the Basic EPS we have to deduct the Interest expenses payable to convertible bond holder. Am I wrong? Pls Reply |
| Dinosaur | That is already in net income ... |
| gazelle | f convertible debt is dilutive, then debt's after-tax interest expense is not considered an interest expense for diluted EPS=> interest expense multiplied by (1- tax rate) must be added back to numerator (Net income). |
