    diluted EPS = $2.05

    Explanation:

    diluted earnings per share = net income / (weighted common stocks outstanding + diluted shares).

    net income = $800,000

    weighted common stocks outstanding:

    January 1, 200,000 common stocks

    April 1, 20,000 stocks issued = 20,000 x 9/12 = 15,000 common stocks

    September 1, 30,000 treasury stocks purchased = - 30,000 x 4/12 = - 10,000

    total weighted stocks outstanding = 205,000

    diluted shares:

    30,000 options at $40 per stock = [ ($50 - $40) / $50] x 30,000 = 6,000

    2,000 bonds x 30 stocks = 60,000

    preferred stock = 40,000 x 3 = 120,000

    total diluted shares = 186,000

    diluted EPS = $800,000 / (205,000 + 186,000) = $2.05
