1)Gallo Light began operations in 2016. The company sometimes sells used warehouses on an installment basis.

The tax rate is 30%, but based on an enacted law, is scheduled to become 35% in 2018.

 

Gallo Light's pretax accounting income from the 2016 income statement was $830,000, which includes $40,000 of interest revenue from an investment in municipal bonds. There were no differences between accounting income and taxable income other than those described above.

(1.)                 Prepare the appropriate journal entry to record Gallo Light's 2016 income taxes.

Show calculations.

(2.)                 What is Gallo Light's 2016 net income?

  1. At the end of the preceding year, World Industries had a deferred tax asset of $17,500,000, attributable to its only temporary difference of $50,000,000 for estimated expenses. At the end of the current year, the temporary difference is $45,000,000. At the beginning of the year there was no valuation account for the deferred tax asset. At year-end, World Industries now estimates that

At that time, a valuation allowance of $4,000,000 was established. At the end of the current year, the temporary difference is $45,000,000, and Doubtful determines that the balance in the valuation account should now be $5,000,000. Taxable income is $15,000,000 and the tax rate is 40% for all years.

Required:

Use the following to answer:

 

Typical Corp. reported a deferred tax liability of $6,000,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015, when the tax rate was 40%. The deferred tax liability was related to a temporary difference of $15,000,000 caused by an installment sale in 2015. The temporary difference is expected to reverse in 2017 when the income deferred from taxation will become taxable. There are no other temporary differences. Assume a new tax law passed in 2016 and the tax rate, which will remain at 40% through December 31, 2016, will become 48% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2016. Pretax accounting income and taxable income for the year 2016 is $30,000,000.

 

  1. Required:

Prepare a compound journal entry to record Typical's income tax expense for the year 2016. Show well-labeled computations.

 

                                                                                                                12,000,000

 

 

 

  1. Prepare two disclosure notes for Typical's year 2016 financial statements to:

 

(a.) Show the composition of Typical's income tax expense for the year. (b.) Explain the classification and description of the deferred tax liability.

Give supporting computations to show how you arrived at the dollar amounts disclosed in your disclosure notes.
