3. The weighted-average number of common shares to be used in computing earnings per common share for 2014 on the 2015 is 8,512,600 shares

4. The weighted-average number of common shares to be used in computing earnings per common share for 2015 on the 2015 is 9,580,600 shares.

Explanation:

1. To calculate the weighted-average number of common shares used in computing earnings per common share for 2013 on the 2014 comparative income statement we would have to ake the following calculation:

Jan1.2013-Sep30.2013(2,413,000*9/12)=1,809,750

retroactive adjustment for stock dividend ×1.10

Jan1.2013-Sep30.2013 adjusted= 1,990,725

Oct.2013-Dec31.2013(2,654,300*3/12)= 663,575

Therefore, the weighted-average number of common shares to be used in computing earnings per common share for 2014 on the 2015 is 2,654,300 shares.

2. To calculate the weighted-average number of common shares used in computing earnings per common share for 2014 on the 2014 comparative income statement we would have to make the following calculation:

Jan1.2014 -Mar31.2014(2654300*3/12) 663575

April1.2014 -Dec31.2014 (4790300*9/12) 3592725

Therefore, the weighted-average number of common shares to be used in computing earnings per common share for 2014 on the 2014 is 4,256,300 shares

3. To calculate the weighted-average number of common shares to be used in computing earnings per common share for 2014 on the 2015 comparative income statement we would have to make the following calculation:

2014 weighted average no of shares 4256300

Retroactive adjustment for stock split ×2 =8512600

Therefore, the weighted-average number of common shares to be used in computing earnings per common share for 2014 on the 2015 is 8,512,600 shares

4. To calculate the weighted-average number of common shares to be used in computing earnings per common share for 2015 on the 2015 comparative income statement we would have to make the following calculation:

Jan1.2015-Mar31.2015 (4790300*3/12)=1197575

Retroactive adjustment for stock split ×2

Jan1-Mar31.2015 adjusted. 2395150

Mar1.-Dec31.2015 (9580600*9/12)= 7185450

Therefore, the weighted-average number of common shares to be used in computing earnings per common share for 2015 on the 2015 is 9,580,600 shares.
