Star Corp

A.

Pretax net income from continuing operations = $1,000,000

Add Accrued Vacation $50,000

Deduct additional Tax Depreciation $100,000

Deduct Dividend received deductions $150,000

Net Taxable Income = $800,000

Income Tax expenses = 21% x $800,000 = $168,000

Income tax Expense provision based on book Net income = 21% x $1,000,000 = $210,000

Income tax benefit = $168,000 minus $210,000 = $42,000 (benefit)

B.

Deferred income tax expense =

Income tax Provision = $210,000

Less income tax expense = $168,000

Differed income tax (benefit) = $42,000

C.

Reconciliation

Book Net income = $1,000,000

Tax rate = 21%

Tax expense provision = $210,000...(a)

Pretax net income from continuing operations = $1,000,000

Add Accrued Vacation $50,000

Deduct additional Tax Depreciation $100,000

Deduct Dividend received deductions $150,000

Taxable Net income (adjusted) = $800,000

Tax rate = 21%

Tax expense provision = $168,000(b)

Difference (a) minus (b) = $42,000 . This is a benefit to the firm (star corp) because its actual tax liability is less than what it provided for because of net deductibles not accounted for in its income statement.
