The discounted operations section will show a value of $450,000

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the discounted operations value.

To do this, what we need to know is we are to use a mathematical approach.

The mathematical formula to to be used take into consideration the value of the net of tax = Pretax loss - (Tax rate * Pretax loss)

From the question, we can identify that the Pretax loss = $600,000

The Tax rate = 25%

The net of tax = 600,000 - (25/100 * 600,000) = 600,000 - 150,000 = $450,000
