In the 2016 income statement, Major Co. would show the following line-item amounts for income tax expense and net income: Multiple Choice $109,080 and $228,000. $82,080 and $378,000. $109,080 and $145,920. $82,080 and $193,920.

Answer 1

Answer: $109,080; $145,920

Explanation:

Based on the information that have been provided in the question, the following can be gotten:

The amount for income tax expenses will be:

= 36% of $303,000

= 36/100 × $303,000

= 0.36 × $303,000

= $109,080

The net income will be:

Reported income = $303,000

Less income tax = $109,080

Less loss on discounted operation = $48,000

Net income = $145,920

Loss on discounted operation:

= $75,000 × (1 - 36%)

= $75,000 × (1 - 0.36)

= $75,000 × 0.64

= $48,000
