    Dear Tutor,

    In the suggested answer of this question of forecasting EPS after the sale of coffee shop, I do not understand why they did not take into account the profit from disposal of coffee shops and the correspondence tax impact when forecasting Adjusted profit.

    Please help clarify this point for me.

    Thanks alot

    It is because the profit on the sale of the coffee shops is a ‘one-off’ immediate profit (and as such has been added to the retained earnings on the SOFP). However as far as the forecast future profits are concerned, they will not be affected by the profit on sale.
