Hello, let's start with part a.
00:10
So in part a, we need to calculate first eps for both plans.
00:24
So let's start with the first plan.
00:26
Plan 1.
00:28
We divide the expected earnings before interest and tax, e .bit, which is given, it's 700 ,000.
00:38
We divide this by the number of equity shares and here we have 320 ,000 equity shares and eps will be equal to 2 .19.
01:01
Okay, i will round to two decimal places, yeah, $2 .19.
01:13
Now let's calculate eps for the second plan.
01:17
Now it's more complicated, so we have the same ebit, but now we have taxes.
01:25
Oh sorry, now we have interest, yeah.
01:28
We need to subtract interest, which is 10 % of 2 ,000 and 272 ,000 ,000.
01:42
Thousand multiplied by 10 % or 0 .1 and we divide this profit before tax over 240 equity shares.
02:05
And in this case we have 1 .97...
