Solution

To calculate the Earnings Per Share (EPS), we first need to subtract the interest expenses from the net income. This will give us the earnings available to shareholders.

Step 1: Subtract interest expenses from net income 1,000,000(NetIncome)1,000,000 (Net Income) - 200,000 (Interest Expenses) = $800,000 (Earnings available to shareholders)

Step 2: Divide the earnings available to shareholders by the number of shares outstanding 800,000/200,000shares=800,000 / 200,000 shares = 4.00 per share

So, the impact on Earnings Per Share (EPS) after deducting interest expenses is 4.00.Therefore,thecorrectanswerisa.4.00. Therefore, the correct answer is a. 4.00.
