Of this amount $625,000 was attributable to Mattoon’s controlling interest while the remaining $49,750 was attributable to the noncontrolling interest. Mattoon has 125,000 shares of common stock outstanding and Effingham has 33,000 shares outstanding. Neither company has issued preferred shares or has any convertible securities outstanding. On the face of the consolidated income statement, how much should be reported as Mattoon’s earnings per share?

In preparing consolidated financial statements for this business combination, how does Tree account for the previous 10 percent ownership interest?
