Assume that Atlas Sporting Goods Inc. has $920,000 in assets. If it goes with a low-liquidity plan for the assets, it can earn a return of 16 percent, but with a high-liquidity plan the return will be 13 percent. If the firm goes with a short-term financing plan, the financing costs on the $920,000 will be 10 percent, and with a long-term financing plan, the financing costs on the $920,000 will be 11 percent.

If the firm used the most aggressive asset-financing mix described in part a and had the anticipated return you computed for part a, what would earnings per share be if the tax rate on the anticipated return was 30 percent and there were 20,000 shares outstanding? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
