    Doe Corp. must report a $850,000 net gain during year 7, and a $600,000 net loss for year 6.

    Revenue must be recognized when the earnings process is reasonably completed and Doe finished the sale of its assets on January 15, Year 7, therefore the $900,000 revenue has to be included in that year's income statement.
