21) Explain net income and what implications can tax have on it that influences a manager's decision? Answer: Net income is operating income plus nonoperating revenues such as interest revenue minus nonoperating costs such as interest cost minus income taxes. Some decisions might not result in a large operating income, but their tax consequences make them attractive because they have a positive effect on net income–the measure that drives shareholders' dividends and returns.
