    manik chand dey
    what I understood by net income is profit after tax.
    As we know equity earnings(earnings to be distributed among the equity shareholders) is profit after tax(PAT)- preference dividend(if any).
    so as earning per share(EPS) and no of shares are given, so we can easily calculate equity earnings, that is EPS* no of shares.
    Now equity earnings+preference dividend= Profit after tax
    (Here cash dividends are given)
