Additional information:
1. Early in 2020, Muffin changed depreciation methods for its plant assets from the double- declining-balance to the straight-line method. The affected assets were purchased at the beginning of 2015 for $200,000, had no residual value, and had useful lives of 10 years. Depreciation expense of $20,000 is included in the selling and administrative expenses of $290,000.
2. On September 1, 2020, Muffin sold one of its segments (product line) to Best Industries for a gain (pre-tax) of $550,000. During the period January 1 to August 31, the discontinued segment incurred an operating loss (pre-tax) of $480,000. This loss is not included in any of the numbers shown above.
3. Included in selling and administrative expenses is bad debts expense of $19,000. Muffin bases its bad debts expense upon a percentage of sales. In 2018 and 2019, the percentage was 0.5 %. In 2020, the percentage was changed to 1%.
