Explanation / Answer

FreePORT-McMoRan Inc. 2016 2015 2014 Gross profit(loss) to sales (14830-17580)/14830= (14607-25415)/14607= (20001-18494)/20001= -18.54% -73.99% 7.53% Operating profit(loss)to sales -2792/14830= -13512/14607= -298/20001= -18.83% -92.50% -1.49% Net loss(continuing operations) -3832/14830= -12180/14607= -1022/20001= -25.84% -83.38% -5.11% Net loss incl.discontinued operations) -4025/14830= -12089/14607= -745/20001= -27.14% -82.76% -3.72% Net loss(common stockholders) -4154/14830= -12236/14607= -1308/20001= -28.01% -83.77% -6.54% Freeport-McMoran follows GAAP as extraordinary item like net gain on early extinguishment of debt,shut-down costs and net loss ondiscontinued opertaions are presented in the Income statement ,whereas, these items are not allowed to be presented in the body of the income statement alongside the results for regular & continuing operations.In the latter, they will be presented in the Notes to teh financial statements. IASB is based on principles & GAAP is full of rules to be followed in maintaining & preparing accounting records. So, IASB will be more universally and conceptually applicable & may render the financial records comparable,acrossindustries & countries also.
