Requirement#2)
Total compensation is $ 495 million out of which $ 330 million is expensed. Balance remaining is $165 million.
No. of shares that can be bought back with balance remaining :
= $165 million ÷ Average market price per share
=$165 million ÷ 15
= 11 million shares
So,
33 million - 11 million = 22 million shares.
Thus, 33 million shares would buy back 11 million shares and increase the denominator of diluted eps by 22 million shares.
