Sandhill Corporation is preparing earnings per share data for 2020. The net income for the year ended December 31, 2020, was $401,000 and there were 58,700 common shares outstanding during the entire year. Sandhill has the following two convertible securities outstanding:

11% convertible bonds (each $1,000 bond is convertible into 25 common shares)		$100,000
4% convertible $100 par value preferred shares (each share is convertible into 2 common shares)		$53,000

Both convertible securities were issued at face value in 2017. Sandhills income tax rate is 24%. The preferred shares are cumulative. For simplicity, ignore the requirement to record the debt and equity components of the bonds separately. Assume that 40% of the convertible bonds were converted to common shares on April 1, 2020. The balances at December 31, 2020 do not reflect the conversion of April 1, 2020.
