Solution and Explanation:

                           2016 2015 2014

ICO/Sales    

ICO                    2521 1895 3145

Sales             24594 25130 28406

ICO/Sales 10.25% 7.54% 11.07%

NI/Sales  

NI               2525       1959         3636

Sales    24594       25130 28406

NI/Sales    10.27%     7.80%       12.80%

CI/Sales  

CI          2010 651           371

Sales 24594 25130 28406

CI/Sales 8.17% 2.59% 1.31%

b. If the gain realized from selling the segment is reported as a separate line item, it has no impact on Incomes. It is shown separately for clear understanding to the intended users. However, the figures of Comprehensive income, Net income and Income from continuing operations will not be affected (except for the difference in amounts).

If the gain is 3866 in 2016, ICO/Sales would remain same at 10.25%.

NI/Sales would vary because of increase in the gain.
