D. $26 million

Respuesta :

Answer:

B. $13.2 million.

Explanation:

The computation of the income from discontinued operations is shown below:

=  (Sale value of assets -  book value of asset - per tax loss) × (1 - income tax rate)

= ($80 million - $48 million - $10 million) × (1 - 0.40%)

= $22 million × 0.6%

= $13.2 million

Gain from the sale of assets = (Sale value of assets -  book value of asset)
