Drew Woodard · Answer 1

Net income of the company accounted for $400,000

Explanation:

Net income is the income or the amount of residual income from the earnings after deducting all the expense or cost from the sales.

The net income or loss of the company accounted for is computed as:

Net Income or Loss = Net Income - Research and Development cost

where

Net Income amounts to $3,400,000

Research and Development cost amounts to $3,000,000

So, putting the values above:

Net Income or loss = $3,400,000 - $3,000,000

Net Income = $400,000
