The company had revenues of $76,200 and expenses of $36,300 for 2020, not including interest and taxes (assume a tax rate of 25%). Throughout 2020, 1,000 common shares were outstanding, and none of the bonds were converted or redeemed. (For simplicity, assume that the convertible bonds' equity element is not recorded.)
