Assignment Help:

Daisy Ltd has a net profit after tax of $3 400 000 for the year ending 30 June 2012.  For the entire financial year Daisy Ltd had two million $1.00 cumulative preference shares on issue which provide dividends at a rate of 10% per year.  The preference share dividends were not treated as part of interest expense.

At 1 July 2011 Daisy Ltd had 1 800 000 fully paid up shares on issue.  On 1 October 2011 a further 200 000 fully paid ordinary shares were issued at an issue price of $5 per share.  On 1 May 2012 Daisy Ltd made a 1 for 4 bonus issue of ordinary shares.  The last sale price of an ordinary share before the bonus issue was $5.50.  The basic earnings per share for the year ending 30 June 2011 was $2 per share.
