At December 31, 2017 Rice Company had 300,000 shares of common stock and 10,000 shares of 6%, $100 par value cumulative preferred stock outstanding. No dividends were declared on either the preferred or common stock in 2017 or 2018. On January 30, 2019, prior to the issuance of its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, Rice declared a 100% stock dividend on its common stock. Net income for 2018 was $1,140,000. In its 2018 financial statements, Rice's 2018 earnings per common share should be A. $1.80.
B. $1.89.
C. $3.60.
D. $3.80.

A. $1.80

Explanation:

Earnings per share = (Net Income - Preferred dividend) / Weighted average outstanding common shares

Earnings per share = (1140000 - 10000*100*6%) / (300000 + 300000)

Earnings per share = $1.80 per share

So, Rice's 2018 earnings per common share should be $1.80 per share

answer; i believe the correct answer is (treasury bills);

1) the stages a new product goes through from beginning to end, i.e., the stages that a product passes through from introduction through growth, maturity, and decline. 2) the time from initial research and development to the time at which sales and support of the product to customers are withdrawn. 3) the period of time during which a product can be produced and marketed profitably.
