Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

(a) Income from Operation is

= Sales Revenue - COGS - Selling & admin exp

= $291,980 - $128,220 - $51,800

= $111,960

(b) Net Income is  

= Sales Revenue - COGS - Selling & admin exp + Gain on sales of assets - Interest exp - Loss on Discontinued Operations

= $291,980 - $128,220 - $51,800 + $27,190 - $5,700 - $12,550

= $120,900

(c) Comprehensive Income is

= Net Income + Unrealized gain on available for sale investments

=  $120,900 + $10,240

= $131,140

(d) Retained earning ending balance is

= Net Income - Dividends declare & paid

=  $120,900 - $4,600

= $116,300
