Table (5)

Working note (1):

Calculate an amount of income taxes:

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Income taxes =}\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{ Income before taxes}\\ \times \text{Income tax rate}\end{array}\right)\\ =\left(\$12,000\times 30\%\right)\\ =\$3,840\end{array}$

Working note (2):

Calculate loss from operation of discontinuing Division R:

$\begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{l}\text{Loss from operation of }\\ \text{discontinuing Division R}\end{array}\}\text{=}\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{ Pretax operating loss}-\\ \text{30\% of Pretax operating loss}\end{array}\right)\\ =\left[\begin{array}{l}\$8,700-\\ \$2,610\left(\$8,700\times 30\%\right)\end{array}\right]\\ =-\$6,090\end{array}$

Working note (3):

Calculate gain on sale of Division R:

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Gain on sale of Division R =}\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{ Pretax gain}-\\ \text{30\% of Pretax gain}\end{array}\right)\\ =\left[\begin{array}{l}\$10,000-\\ \$3,00\left(\$10,000\times 30\%\right)\end{array}\right]\\ =\$7,000\end{array}$

Working note (4):

Calculate the number of common shares:

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Number of common shares =}\left(\frac{\text{ Common stock amount }}{\text{Par value}}\right)\\ =\left(\frac{\$80,000}{\$10}\right)\\ =8,000\end{array}$

Working note (5):

Calculate income from continuing operation earnings per common share:

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Earnings per common share}\text{=}\frac{\text{Income from continuing operation}}{\text{Number of Common stock outstanding}}\\ =\frac{\$8,960}{8,000}\\ =\$1.12\end{array}$

Working note (6):

Calculate income from discontinuing operation earnings per common share:

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Earnings per common share}\text{=}\frac{\text{Income from discontinuing operation}}{\text{Number of Common stock outstanding}}\\ =\frac{\$910}{8,000}\\ =\$.11\end{array}$

Table (6)

To determine

Evaluate the return on common equity if it was 10% last year for Company S.

Explanation of Solution

Return on equity ratio: It is a profitability ratio that measures the profit generating ability of the company from the invested money of the shareholders. The formula to calculate the return on equity is as follows:

$\text{Return on common equity}=\frac{\text{Net income}}{\text{Average common equity}}\times 100$

Evaluate the return on common equity for 2019:

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Return on common equity}=\frac{\text{Net income}}{\text{Average common equity}}\times 100\\ =\frac{\$9,870}{\$150,000}\\ =6.58\%\end{array}$

Thus, the return on common equity is 6.58%.

During 2018, the return on common equity is 10%. This return has been decreased by 3% in the year 2019. The decrease in return on common equity is due to discontinue in the segment due to the tornado which incurred severe loss to the company.
