Please assist with the following question. Thanks.

Assume that Marigold Corp. earned net income of $ 3,324,000 during 2021. In addition, it had 99,000 shares of 8%, $ 100 par nonconvertible, noncumulative preferred stock outstanding for the entire year. Because of liquidity considerations, however, the company did not declare and pay a preferred dividend in 2021. Compute earnings per share for 2021, using the weighted-average number of shares determined in part (a). (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. $2.55.)
