At the beginning of 2019, Conley Company purchased an asset at a cost of 10,000. For financial reporting purposes, the asset has a 4-year life with no residual value and is depreciated by the straight-line method beginning in 2019. For tax purposes, the asset is depreciated under MACRS using a 5-year recovery period. Prior to 2019, Conley had no deferred tax liability or asset. The difference between depreciation for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes is the only temporary difference between pretax financial income and taxable income. The current income tax rate is 30%, and no change in the tax rate has been enacted for future years. In 2019 and 2020, taxable income will be higher or lower than financial income by what amount?
Turnip Company purchased an asset at a cost of 10,000 with a 10-year life during the current year. Turnip uses differing depreciation methods for financial reporting and income tax purposes. The depreciation expense during the current year for financial reporting is 1,000 and for income tax purposes is 2,000. Turnip is subject to a 30% enacted future tax rate.

Deferred Tax Liability: Depreciation At the beginning of 2019, its first year of operations, Cooke Company purchased an asset for 100,000. This asset has an 8-year economic life with no residual value, and it is being depreciated by the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. For tax purposes, however, the asset is being depreciated using the MACRS (200%, 5-year life) method. During 2019, Cooke reported pretax financial income of 51,500 and taxable income of 44,000. The depreciation temporary difference caused the difference between the two income amounts. The tax rate in 2019 was 30%, and no change in the tax rate had been enacted for future years. Required: 1. Prepare a schedule that shows for each year, 2019 through 2026, (a) MACRS depreciation, (b) straight line depreciation, (c) the annual depreciation temporary difference, and (d) the accumulated temporary difference at the end of each year. 2. Prepare a schedule that computes for each year, 2019 through 2026, (a) the ending deferred tax liability and (h) the change in the deferred tax liability. 3. Prepare Cookes income tax journal entry at the end of 2019. 4. Next Level Explain what happens to the balance of the deferred tax liability at the end of 2019 through 2026.
