Answer:

33,000 shares

Explanation:

The computation of the weighted - average common shares outstanding is shown below:

= Outstanding common shares + Issued shares × number of months ÷ total number of months in a year - repurchased shares × number of months ÷ total number of months in a year

= 14,000 shares + 40,000 shares ×  6 months ÷ 12 months  - 6,000 shares  × 2 months ÷ 12 months

= 14,000 shares + 20,000 shares  - 1,000 shares

= 33,000 shares
