Answer:

Explanation:

The preparation of the 2021 EPS presentation for the Esposito Import Company is shown below:

Income from continuing operations                           $7 million

Less: Loss from discontinued operations                  ($1.4 million)

Net income                                                   $5.6 million

Now the earning per share would be

Earning per share = (Net income) ÷ (Number of shares)

                              = ($5.6 million) ÷ (1 million shares)

                              = $5.6 per share
