Week 4 - Chapter 18: Income Taxes Brandon Anh Pham BE 18.3: Nilson Inc. Nilson Inc. had accounting income of $156,000 in 2023. Included in the calculation of that amount is the CEOQ’s life insurance expense of $5,000, which is not deductible for tax purposes. In addition, the UCC for tax purposes is $14,000 lower than the net carrying amount of the property, plant, and equipment, although the amounts were equal at the beginning of the year. Prepare Nilson’s journal entry to record 2023 taxes, assuming the company follows IFRS and has a tax rate of 25%. To calculate Nilson’s income tax to record the 2023 taxes, we must first calculate Nilson’s taxable income by analyzing and making adjustments to the company’s accounting income as follows: Calculating Taxable Income Accounting Income 156,000 Adjustments None: CEO Non-Tax-Deductible Life Insurance (Already Included) 0 Add: Difference in UCC and Net Carrying Value of PP&E 14,000 ‘Taxable Income '*-1‘70,006‘ With the taxable income calculated, we can then calculate the current income tax by multiplying the taxable income with the tax rate given in the case to calculate the current income tax owed as: Calculating Current Income Tax Taxable Income 170,000 Tax Rate 25% Current Income Tax 42,500 To finalize, we can then record Nilson’s journal entry for taxes in 2023 using the current income tax figure we calculated as follows: Journal Entry: December 31, 2023 Current Tax Expense 42,500 Income Tax Payable 42,500 To record 2023 taxes
