BL Co. reported a deferred tax liability of $15M for the year ended December 31, 2020, related to a temporary difference of $60M. The tax rate was 25%. The temporary difference is expected to reverse in 2022 at which time the deferred tax liability will become payable. There are no other temporary differences in 2020-2022. Assume a new tax law is enacted in 2021 that causes the tax rate to change from 25% to 20% beginning in 2022. (The rate remains 25% for 2021 taxes.) Taxable income in 2021 is $50 million.

For many years preceding 2018, Minimis Corporation, a calendar year corporation, had incurred the alternative minimum tax (AMT) and as a result had a $2 million minimum tax carryover into 2018. However, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 repealed the corporate AMT for tax years beginning after 2017. Minimis expects its regular tax liability to be $100,000 per year for 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021. Your supervisor has asked you to determine how Minimis treats the minimum tax credit carryover in these four years now that the corporate AMT has been repealed. Your supervisor has suggested that you start by looking at IRC Sec. 53.
Since the SUTA rates change at the end of each year, the available 2023 rates were used for FUTA and SUTA. Note: For this textbook edition the rate 0.6% was used for the net FUTA tax rate for employers. Example 5-6 Park Company has a $70,000 federal and state taxable payroll and has earned a reduced state tax rate timely, the FUTA tax calculation is as follows: Gross FUTA tax ($70,000 x 0.060) Less 90% credit for state taxes paid late ($70,000 x 0.04 x 90%) $2,520 Less additional credit for state tax if rate were 5.4% [$70,000 x (0.054 - 0.04)] 980 Total credit Net FUTA tax If Park Company had made its SUTA payments before the due date of Form 940, the credit for the paym would have provided a total credit of $3,780 and a FUTA tax savings of $280. Peroni Company paid wages of $170,900 this year. Of this amount, $114,000 was taxable for net FUTA and SUTA purposes. The state's contribution tax rate is 3.1% for Peroni Company. Due to cash flow problems, the company did not make any SUTA…
