At the beginning of 2008, 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 2008, 2009, and 2010 but failed to deduct the salvage value in computing the depreciation base.
Sale of securities held as a part of its portfolio resulted in a loss of $57,000 (pretax).

The corporation disposed of its recreational division at a loss of $115,000 before taxes. Assume that this transaction meets the criteria for discontinued operations.
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 2008 income by $60,000 and decrease 2009 income by $20,000 before taxes. The FIFO method has been used for 2010. The tax rate on these items is 40%.
