Motorola Inc. will score $4.4 billion in accumulated earnings in the third and fourth quarters thanks to a federal tax incentive. The company said the incentive will add $200 million to its net income in the third quarter. The incentive comes from the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, which provides a one-time tax incentive for U.S. multinational companies to repatriate accumulated earnings from their foreign subsidiaries.

Motorola's stock was up slightly on the news to about $21.86 per share.
