•
On October 1, Year 3, Pitt Corp. committed itself to a formal plan to sell its Kam Division's assets early in Year 4. On that date, Pitt estimated that the fair value of the component's assets was $25,000 less than the carrying value. Pitt also estimated that Kam would incur operating losses of $100,000 for the year-ended December 31, Year 3 and $50,000 for the period January 1, Year 4, through February 28, Year 4. All estimates proved to be materially correct.
