A gross amount minus the income tax associated with the gross amount. For example, a company may dispose of one of its business segments and show a gain (proceeds exceed carrying amount) of $10,000,000. However, if the gain will result in income taxes of $3,000,000, the gain net of tax is $7,000,000.

"As a small-business owner, I used to live with a fear of the financial unknown. Bookkeeping and taxes were a black box, and my accountant felt like a translator for a language I didn't even know existed. Then I discovered AccountingCoach PRO. It was like turning on a lamp. The clear explanations and interactive exercises helped me understand debits and credits. I could finally review my bookkeeper, dissect my accountant's reports, and tackle my taxes without a time-consuming headache. AccountingCoach PRO has allowed me to gain confidence in my finances, and sleep soundly knowing I'm in control. It's not just about numbers, it's about peace of mind, and that's priceless." - Douglas W.
