B. What is the amount of deferred tax asset?

C. How much is the net income after tax.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Deferred tax:

When accounting income is different from income under tax laws, it is called as deferred tax. Based on the income calculations and tax liability determined, deferred tax asset or liability would arise.

Step 2

A. Calculation of deferred tax expense:

i. Calculation of tax charged on accounting income:

$\begin{array}{rcl} T a x e x p e n s e & = & A c c o u n t i n g i n c o m e \times T a x r a t e \\ = & $ 1, 185, 000 \times 30 % \\ = & $ 355, 500 \end{array}$

ii. Calculation of tax under federal tax :

$\begin{array}{rcl} T a x u n d e r T a x l a w s & = & I n c o m e u n d e r T a x l a w s \times T a x r a t e \\ = & ($ 1, 185, 000 + $ 150, 000 - $ 105, 000 + $ 150, 000 - $ 300, 000) \times 30 % \\ = & $ 1, 080, 000 \times 30 % \\ = & $ 324, 000 \end{array}$

The deferred tax expense is $324,000.
