Question

On December 31, 2021, the end of the fiscal year, California Microtech Corporation completed the sale of its semiconductor business for $15 million. The semiconductor business segment qualifies as a component of the entity according to GAAP. The book value of the assets of the segment was $13 million. The loss from operations of the segment during 2021 was $4.8 million. Pretax income from continuing operations for the year totaled $7.8 million. The income tax rate is 25%.
Prepare the lower portion of the 2021 income statement beginning with income from continuing operations before income taxes. Ignore EPS disclosures. (Amounts to be deducted and negative amounts should be indicated with a minus sign. Enter your answers in whole dollars and not in millions.)

Answer 1

Answer:

Income from continuing operations before income taxes        7,800,000

Less Income tax expenses (7,800,000*25%)                            (1,950,000)

Income from continuing operations                                            5,850,000

Discontinued operations:  

Loss from operations of discontinued component                 (2,800,000)

Income tax benefit                                                                       700,000

Loss on discontinued operations                                             (2,100,000)

Net Income (loss)                                                                        3,750,000

Working

Loss from operations of discontinued component

= Gain from sale of semiconductor business - loss from operations of the segment

= (15 - 13 ) - 4.8

= -$2.8 million

Income tax benefit

= 2,800,000 * 25%

= $700,000
