Explanation:

Since in the given question, the value of realized gain is $2,400,000 and operating losses is $2,800,000. So , by considering these value first we have to find out the profit or gain by subtracting this amount with each other.

In mathematically,

= Realized gain - Operating losses

= $2,400,000 - $2,800,000

= -$400,000

Since, the realized gain is smaller than operating losses, the Lopez corporation has a loss of $400,000

The Lopez corporation has disposed of the Pine Division, so this loss would come under the discontinued operations.

So,

The reported should be shown below:

Results of continuing operations = 0

Discontinued operations = $400,000 loss

Hence, the correct option is d. 0,400,0000 loss
