Answer:

$7,176,000

Explanation:

We will calculate the sbsidiary net gain and add it to the firm income to get the consolidated net income:

Little income                                                864,000

amortization on acquisition investment    (48,000)  

net gain on subsidiary                                816,000

Big income 6,360,000

big income + income from subsidiary = 6,360,000 + 816,000 = 7,176,000

This will be the consolidated net income.

The dividends do not impact the net income.
