DonAnd Great question
rocyang like it
Trofimenko really great one
thegeneral101 tricky...but good
johntan1979 The headache is if they ask for diluted EPS... will need more than double the time to solve this one question.
farhan92 think it might be one for the exam (if you feel like you are low on time) work out the basic and then eliminate options based on basic>dilutive. If you have time at the end can always come back to it
