16.Unit Technologies uses accrual basis for financial reporting purposes and cash accounting for tax purposes.

A)   asset of $10,880.

B)   asset of $16,320.

C)   liability of $16,320.

D)   liability of $10,880.

The correct answer was D)

Since pretax income ($97,500) exceeds the taxable income ($65,500), United Technologies will have a deferred tax liability of $10,880 = [( $97,500 - $65,500)(0.34)]

19.An analyst gathered the following information about a company:

§ Taxable income = $100,000

§ Pretax income = $120,000

§ Current tax rate = 20 %

§ Tax rate when the reversal occurs will be 10 %

What is the company's tax expense?

A)   $22,000.

B)   $24,000.

C)   $10,000.

D)   $12,000.

The correct answer was A)

Deferred tax liability = (120,000-100,000) * 0.1 = 2,000

Tax expense = current tax rate * taxable income + deferred tax liability

0.2 * 100,000 + 2,000 = 22,000
