Answer:

$198,000 and $112,000 respectively

Explanation:

Income tax expense = Income from continuing operations before income taxes * Tax rate

Income tax expense = $280,000 * 40%

Income tax expense = $112,000

Net income = Income from continuing operations before income taxes - Income tax expense + (Before-tax income on discontinued operations * (1 - 40%)

Net income = ($280,000 - $112,000) + ($50,000 * 0.6)

Net income = $168,000 + $30,000

Net income = $198,000
