On March 31, 20X7, the company paid a 10% stock dividend.
On June 30, 20X7, the company sold $10 million face value of 7% convertible debentures, convertible into common at $5 per share.

1212Basic EPS does not consider potential dilution from convertible bonds.
Original shares = 2,000,000(12) = 24,000,000
+ Stock dividend = 200,000(12) = 2,400,000
+ New shares = 100,000(3) = 300,000
