Quantum Technology had $640,000 of retained earnings on Dec 31, 2010. The company paid common dividends of 30,000 in 2010 and had retained earnings of $500,000 on Dec 31, 2009. How much did Quantum Technology earn during 2010, and what would earnings per share be if 40,000 shares of common stock were outstanding?

Do not simply retype or paste a question from your book or study material

We won't do your homework questions for you.
You were given the assignment for you to learn.

If you come up with your own answer and post it for us to critique that is within reason.

If you have some SPECIFIC questions that you couldn't find or didn't understand, we may help with that.
But this is your assignment, so show us you have at least attempted to complete it on your own.

Thank you.
