I'm apologized for the incomplete question. The reason why I ask for help is because I don't have any accounting acknowledgement and this something completely new for me.. I don't expect you give me the answers but I will really appreciate if you can help me the steps to get the right answer since in the textbook is very complicated for me to understand what they say.thanks!

In order to get the earnings per share you need to know the number of shares issued
It was for this reason I said the question is incomplete, that number isn't included
Accounting is as much about comprehension as it is about numbers
Repeating the text doesn't make anything any clearer

Reading the text of your question suggests other data is also not included including what ever was in the text box that didn't copy over
