Earnings per share (EPS): The amount of earnings made available to each common share is referred to as earnings per share. Dilutive securities like convertible bonds, convertible preferred stock, and stock options, reduce the EPS by increasing the common shares.
Use the following formula to determine EPS:
Net loss per share: The computation of EPS requires net income. But if a company reports net loss instead of net income, the loss which is generated by each common share, is referred to as net loss per share.
To determine: The net loss per share of Incorporation A for the year ended December 31, 2018
