aspect co (March/June 2017)

Hello! This is an extract from the June/March 2017 question: On 1 April 20X4, Aspect Co decided to focus on its core business and so disposed of a non-core division. The disposal generated a loss of $1·5m which is included within operating expenses. The question is why do we need to deduct this loss on disposal of non-core division from operating expenses of Aspect Co? Thank you in advance!

Hi, If it is a discontinued operation then it will need to be disclosed separately and therefore removed from the operating expenses. Thanks
