At the beginning of 2019, Conley Company purchased an asset at a cost of 10,000. For financial reporting purposes, the asset has a 4-year life with no residual value and is depreciated by the straight-line method beginning in 2019. For tax purposes, the asset is depreciated under MACRS using a 5-year recovery period. Prior to 2019, Conley had no deferred tax liability or asset. The difference between depreciation for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes is the only temporary difference between pretax financial income and taxable income. The current income tax rate is 30%, and no change in the tax rate has been enacted for future years. In 2019 and 2020, taxable income will be higher or lower than financial income by what amount?
Deferred Tax Liability: Depreciation At the beginning of 2019, its first year of operations, Cooke Company purchased an asset for 100,000. This asset has an 8-year economic life with no residual value, and it is being depreciated by the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. For tax purposes, however, the asset is being depreciated using the MACRS (200%, 5-year life) method. During 2019, Cooke reported pretax financial income of 51,500 and taxable income of 44,000. The depreciation temporary difference caused the difference between the two income amounts. The tax rate in 2019 was 30%, and no change in the tax rate had been enacted for future years. Required: 1. Prepare a schedule that shows for each year, 2019 through 2026, (a) MACRS depreciation, (b) straight line depreciation, (c) the annual depreciation temporary difference, and (d) the accumulated temporary difference at the end of each year. 2. Prepare a schedule that computes for each year, 2019 through 2026, (a) the ending deferred tax liability and (h) the change in the deferred tax liability. 3. Prepare Cookes income tax journal entry at the end of 2019. 4. Next Level Explain what happens to the balance of the deferred tax liability at the end of 2019 through 2026.

Comprehensive Colt Company reports pretax financial income of 143,000 in 2019. In addition to pretax income from continuing operations (of which revenues are 295,000), the following items are included in this pretax income: Colts taxable income totals 93,000 in 2019. The difference between the pretax financial income and the taxable income is due to the excess of tax depreciation over financial depreciation on assets used in continuing operations. At the beginning of 2019, Colt had a retained earnings balance of 310.000 and a deferred tax liability of 8,100. During 2019, Colt declared and paid dividends of 48,000. It is subject to tax rates of 15% on the first 50,000 of income and 30% on income in excess of 50,000. Based on proper interperiod tax allocation procedures, Colt has determined that its 2019 ending deferred tax liability is 14,100. Required: 1. Prepare a schedule for Colt to allocate the total 2019 income tax expense to the various components of pretax income. 2. Prepare Colts income tax journal entry at the end of 2019. 3. Prepare Colts 2019 income statement. 4. Prepare Colts 2019 statement of retained earnings. 5. Show the related income tax disclosures on Colts December 31, 2019, balance sheet.
Deferred Tax Liability: Depreciation Gire Company began operations at the beginning of 2019 at which time it purchased a depreciable asset for 60, 000. For 2019 through 2022, the asset was depreciated on the straight-line basis over a 4-year life (no residual value) for financial reporting. For income tax purposes, the asset was depreciated using MACRS (200%, 3-year life). For 2019 through 2022, Gire reported pretax financial income and taxable income of the following amounts (the differences are due solely to the depreciation temporary differences): Over the entire 4-year period, Gire was subject to an income tax of 30%, and no change in the tax rate had been enacted for future years. Required: 1. Prepare a schedule that shows for each year, 2019 through 2022, the (a) MACRS depreciation, (b) straight-line depreciation, (c) annual depreciation temporary difference, and (d) accumulated temporary difference at the end of each year. 2. Prepare Gires income tax journal entry at the end of (a) 2019, (b) 2020, (c) 2021, and (d) 2022. (Round to the nearest dollar.) 3. Prepare the lower portion of Gires income statement for (a) 2019, (b) 2020, (c) 2021, and (d) 2022.
Deferred Tax Asset and Valuation Account Zeta Corporation reported taxable income for 2019 of 200,000. The enacted tax rate for 2019 is 40%. During 2019, Zeta became the defendant in a lawsuit. The lawsuit has not been resolved at the end of the period, but Zetas lawyers believe that it is probable that the company will be held liable. The legal office estimated that the amount of loss will IK 80,000. AS a result, the lawsuit has been recognized as a contingent liability. However, the legal obligation is not deductible for tax purposes during 2019. The lawsuit represents the only difference between financial income and taxable income for the year. Required: 1. Assume that Zeta Corporation has been quite profitable in past periods and expects to continue that pattern in the future. Record a journal entry to recognize tax expense, tax payable, and deferred tax for 2019. 2. Assume that there is substantial doubt about whether Zeta Corporation will be profitable in future periods. As a result, the company believes that one-half of the future deduction for legal costs will not be realized. Record a journal entry to recognize tax expense, tax payable, and deferred tax for the year. 3. Next Level Explain what circumstances require that a valuation allowance account should be utilized when deferred tax is recognized. How should that account be presented on the financial statements? 4. Prepare your answer to Requirement 2 assuming that Zeta prepares financial statements according to IFRS.
