    Answer: $58,000

    Explanation:

    If Zhou is allowed to treat the departments as components of a single activity then ALL the losses suffered by Department B can be offset against the Income of Department A because they will be treated as a singular business.

    Seeing as Department A has a higher income of $70,000 than the loss of Department B of $58,000, all of Department B's loss can therefore be offset by Department A.
