rent revenue 12,000

ending 46,000 24,000 (2,000)* 0
Explanation:
pretax income 800,000
permanent difference:
municipal bonds interest (20,000)
accounting taxable income 780,000
temporary difference:
depreciation expense (480,000)
litigation 70,000
rent revenue 60,000
taxable income 430,000
480,000 / 4 = 120,000
we have income tax payable: 430,000 x 20% = 86,000
income tax expense 780,000 x 20% = 156,000
deferred tax income laibility 156,000 - 86,000 = 70,000
*on the tax schedule as the value switches to negative we no longer have a tax liability but asset.
the municipal bonds are not considered into calcualtikon as they are tax exempt therefore do not create temporary difference.
