Explanation:

Year      Financial income           Taxable income       Temporary difference

1990         $1,600,000                   $600,000                           $1,000,000

1991           $2,600,000                 $1,400,000                         $1,200,000

Total          $4,200,000                   $2,000,000                       $2,200,000

In the table above, The temporary difference = Financial income - Taxable income.

For year 1990, The temporary difference =  $1,600,000 - $600,000 = $1,000,000

For year 1991, The temporary difference =   $2,600,000 - $1,400,000 =  $2,200,000

Total Financial income =  $1,600,000 + $2,600,000 = $4,200,000

Total taxable income = $600,000 + $1,400,000 = $2,000,000

The total temporary difference = Total financial income - Total taxable income = $4,200,000 - $2,000,000 = $2,200,000

The income tax rate = 30% = 0.3

Therefore the deferred income taxes = total temporary difference * income tax rate = $2,200,000 * 0.3 = $660,000
