Cranston Inc. reported an impairment loss of $200,000 on its income statement for the year ended December 31, year 3. This loss was related to long-lived assets which Cranston intended to use in its operations. On the company's December 31, year 3 balance sheet, Cranston reported these long-lived assets after impairment at $1,000,000 and as of December 31, year 3, Cranston estimated that these long-lived assets would be used for another five years.

On the company's December 31, year 4 income statement, what amount should be reported as the gain on reversal of impairment loss?
