    D. $3,588,000

    Explanation:

    The computation of the consolidated net income is shown below:

    = Net income + earning - amortization of allocations

    = $3,180,000 + $432,000 - $24,000

    = $3,588,000

    We simply added the earning and deduct the amortization of allocations to the net income so that the accurate amount can come.
