    The earnings per share is 1.8

    Explanation:

    The formula to compute the earning per share is shown below:

    Earning per share = (Net income - preferred dividend) : (weighted average common shares outstanding)

    = $36,000 : 20,000 shares

    = 1.8 earning per share

    The preferred dividend is not given in the question so we ignored it

    The other items which are mentioned in the question are irrelevant. hence, it is ignored in the computation part.
