Question:

Maher AG reported income before income tax during 2022 of €790,000. Additional transactions occurring in 2022 but not considered in the €790,000 are as follows.

1. The company experienced an uninsured flood loss in the amount of €90,000 during the year.

2. At the beginning of 2020, the company purchased a machine for €54,000 (residual value of €9,000) that had a useful life of 6 years. The bookkeeper used straight-line depreciation for 2020, 2021, and 2022 but failed to deduct the residual value in computing the depreciation base.

3. Sale of securities held as a part of its portfolio resulted in a gain of €47,000.

4. The company disposed of its recreational division at a loss of €115,000 before taxes. Assume that this transaction meets the criteria for discontinued operations.

5. The company 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 2020 income by €60,000 and decrease 2021 income by €20,000 before taxes. The FIFO method has been used for 2022.
