Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Income before extraordinary items:

= Sales - Total expenses

= $600 - (Operating Expenses + Restructuring charges)

= $600 - (250 + 20)

= $600 - $270

= $330

Income before tax = $330

Income after taxes before extraordinary items:

= Income before tax - taxes

= $330 - (40% × $330)

= $330 - $132

= $198

Net income:

= Income after taxes before extraordinary items - Extraordinary loss (Net of tax)

= $198 - [$50 - (40% × $50)]

= $198 - $30

= $168
