8. The Kingston Company wants to expand and is considering options for raising additional cash. The company estimates net income before the expansion of $290,000 in 2019 and that the expansion will provide additional operating income of $74,000 in 2019. The company intends to sell the shares of treasury stock, so use issued shares for the analysis rather than current shares outstanding. Compare these options, assuming a 30% income tax rate:
Plan 1: Issue 9,000 additional shares of common stock for $40 per share
Plan 2: Issue $140,000 in 15-year, 20% bonds payable.
Which option will contribute more net income in 2019? Which option provides the highest EPS?
