Midway Co. had the following transactions during 20X1:
$1,200,000 pretax loss on foreign currency exchange due to a major unexpected devaluation by the foreign government
$500,000 pretax loss from discontinued operations of a component
$800,000 pretax loss on equipment damaged by a hurricane. This was the first hurricane ever to strike in Midway’s area. Midway also received $1,000,000 from its insurance company to replace a building, with a carrying value of $300,000, that had been destroyed by the hurricane.
Why is the first event not an extraordinary item?
