The extraordinary gain has a portion that correspond to fourth quarter so we should remove it:

60,000 / 3 = 20,000 per quarter

The property taxes include a portion that occurs over the fourth quarter we should remove it as well:

48,000 / 4 = 12,000

therefore the net income should be:

95,000 -  20000 + 12000 = 87,000
