At the beginning of 2017, the corporation purchased office equipment for $540,000 (salvage value of $60,000) that had a useful life of 6 years. The bookkeeper used straight-line depreciation for 2017, 2018, and 2019 but failed to deduct the salvage value in computing the depreciation base for all three years. 3. Sale of securities held as part of its portfolio resulted in a loss of $57,000 (pretax) in 2019. 4. When its president died in 2019, the corporation realized $150,000 in cash from an insurance policy. The cash surrender value of this policy had been carried on the books as an investment in the amount of $46,000. (The gain is nontaxable.) 5. In 2019, the corporation disposed of one of its divisions at a loss of $115,000 before taxes. Assume that this transaction meets the criteria for discontinued operations. 6.
