Question

Show Attempt History Current Attempt in Progress Splish Inc. reported income from continuing operations before taxes during 2020 of $796,800. Additional transactions occurring in 2020 but not considered in the $796,800 are as follows. 1. The corporation experienced an uninsured flood loss in the amount of $94,100 during the year. 2. At the beginning of 2018, the corporation purchased a machine for $81,000 (salvage value of $13,500) that had a useful life of 6 years. The bookkeeper used straight-line depreciation for 2018, 2019, and 2020, but failed to deduct the salvage value in computing the depreciation base. 3. Sale of securities held as a part of its portfolio resulted in a loss of $65,000 (pretax). 4. When its president died, the corporation realized $161.400 from an insurance policy. The cash surrender value of this policy had been carried on the books as an investment in the amount of $43,510 (the gain is nontaxable). 5. The corporation disposed of its recreational division at a loss of $124,360 before taxes. Assume that this transaction meets the criteria for discontinued operations. 6. The corporation decided to change its method of inventory pricing from average cost to the FIFO method. The effect of this change on prior years is to increase 2018 income by $58,130 and decrease 2019 income by $21,060 before taxes. The FIFO method has been used for 2020. The tax rate on these items is 30%. Prepare an income statement for the year 2020 starting with income from continuing operations before taxes. Compute earnings per share as it should be shown on the face of the income statement. Common shares outstanding for the year are 110,320 shares. (Assume a tax rate of 30% on all items, unless indicated otherwise.) (Round earnings per share to 2 decimal places, e-8. 1.48 and all other answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,275.) SPLISH INC.

Working note

1.

[796800 - 94100 - 65000 + (161400 - 43510)] = 755590

Diff in depreciation = [81000 / 6] - [ (81000 -13500) / 6 ] = 2250

income from continuing operations = 755590+2250 = 757840
