BE 4.3 (Lo 2, 3, 4) (Various Income-Related Items) Maher Inc. reported Income from continuing operations before taxes during 2020 of $790,000. Additional transactions occurring in 2020 but not considered in the $190,000 are as follows. 1. The corporation experienced an uninsured flood loss in the amount of $90,000 during the year. 2. At the beginning of 2018, the corporation purchased a machine for $54,000 (Salvage Value of $9,000) 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 it's portfolio resulted in a loss of $57,000 (pretax). 4. When the president died, the corporation realized $150,000 from an Insurance Policy. The cash surrender value of this policy had been carried on the books as an investment in the amount of $46,000 (the gain in nontaxable). 5. The corporation disposed of this recreational division at a loss of $115,000 before taxes. Assume that this transaction meets the criteria for discontinued operations. 6. The corporation divided to change this method of inventory pricing from average to the FIFO method. The effect of this change on prior years is to increase 2018 income by $60,000 and decrease 2019 income by $20,000 before taxes. The FIFO method has been used for 2020. The tax rate on these items is 30%. Instructions: Prepare an income statement for the year 2020 starting with income from continuing operations before taxes. Compute earnings per share as this should be shown on the face of the income statement. Common Shares outstanding for the year are 120,000 shares. (Assume a tax rate of 30% on all items, unless indicated otherwise.)
