Corrected Question

I have a 5 year partial financial summary; adapted... I am to find the EPS for 5 consecutive years. However, the only information listed for stocks is the per share of common stock- net income and dividends . How do I compute the outstanding weighted common stock with only this information?

Net income- 1.70, 1.40, 1.30, 1.10, 0.88

Dividends- 0.35, 0.33, 0.29, 0.25, 0.21

Stockholder's Equity- 52,400, 45,700, 43,200, 34,200, 35,000

Rate of return on Stockholder's Equity- 54.1%, 25.4%, 22.6%, 12.6%, 12.1%
