    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
