The following information is available in respect of High-end Ltd. for the accounting year 2022-2023 and 2023-2024: Net profit for ₹ Year 2022-2023 22,00,000 Year 2023-2024 30,00,000 Number of shares outstanding prior to right issue 10,00,000 shares. Right issue: One new share for each five shares outstanding i.e. 2,00,000 shares. : Right issue price - 25 : Last date to exercise right 31 st July, 2023. Fair value of one equity share immediately prior to exercise of rights on 31.07.2023 is 32. You are required to compute, as per AS 20: (i) Basic earnings per share for the year 2022-2023. (ii) Restated basic earnings per share for the year 2022-20223 for right issue. (iii) Basic earnings per share for the year 2023-2024.

Suggested Answer and Working Notes:

Computation of basic earnings per share 2022-2023 (₹) 2023-2024 (₹) EPS for the year 2022-2023 as originally reported = Net profit for the year attributable to equity shareholders / weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year = 22,00,000 / 10,00,000 shares 2.20 EPS for the year 2022-2023 restated for the right issue = 22,00,000 / (10,00,000 x 1.04) 2.12 EPS for the year 2023-2024 (including effect of right issue) = 30,00,000 / {(10,00,000 x 1.04 x 4/12) + (12,00,000 x 8/12)} 2.62 Working Notes: Computation of theoretical ex-rights fair value per share = (fair value of all outstanding shares immediately prior to exercise of rights + Total value received from exercise of rights) / (number of shares outstanding prior to exercise + number of shares issued on the exercise)= (32x 10,00,000 +25 x 2,00,000) / (10,00,000 + 2,00,000) = 30.83Computation of adjustment factor = Fair value per share prior to exercise of rights / Theoretical ex-right value per share = 32/30.83 = 1.04 (approx.)
