1. Calculation of Income from continuing operations

$\begin{array}{c}\mathbf{Income}\text{ }\mathbf{From}\text{ }\mathbf{Continuing}\text{ }\mathbf{operations}\text{ }\mathbf{per}\text{ }\mathbf{share}\mathbf{=}\frac{(\mathbf{Income}\text{ }\mathbf{From}\text{ }\mathbf{Continuing}\text{ }\mathbf{operations}\mathbf{-}\mathbf{Dividend}\text{ }\mathbf{Declared}\text{ }\mathbf{on}\text{ }\mathbf{preferred}\text{ }\mathbf{stock})}{\mathbf{Number}\text{ }\mathbf{of}\text{ }\mathbf{shares}\text{ }\mathbf{outstanding}}\\ \mathbf{=}\frac{\$2,026,000-\$80,000}{500,000}\\ \mathbf{=}\mathbf{3}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{892}\end{array}$

2.Loss of operations

$\begin{array}{c}\mathbf{Loss}\text{ }\mathbf{on}\text{ }\mathbf{operations}\mathbf{=}\frac{\mathbf{Loss}\text{ }\mathbf{on}\text{ }\mathbf{operations}}{\mathbf{Number}\text{ }\mathbf{of}\text{ }\mathbf{shares}\text{ }\mathbf{outstanding}}\\ \mathbf{=}\frac{\$90,000}{500,000}\\ \mathbf{=}\mathbf{\$}\mathbf{0}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{18}\end{array}$

3.Loss on disposal

$\begin{array}{c}\mathbf{Loss}\text{ }\mathbf{on}\text{ }\mathbf{disposal}\mathbf{=}\frac{\mathbf{Loss}\text{ }\mathbf{on}\text{ }\mathbf{disposal}}{\mathbf{Number}\text{ }\mathbf{of}\text{ }\mathbf{shares}\text{ }\mathbf{outstanding}}\\ \mathbf{=}\frac{\$440,000}{\mathbf{500},\mathbf{000}}\\ \mathbf{=}\mathbf{\$}\mathbf{0}\mathbf{.}\mathbf{88}\end{array}$
