If Fargo Bank is expected to generate taxable income of 10 billion per year in the future, and its tax rate is 30%, what is the present value of these acquired tax loss carryforwards given a cost of capital of 8%? NOTE: Assume that the firm can use tax loss carryforwards to write-off 100% of its earnings

Your firm's management conducts an assessment of each deferred tax asset on 12/31/2023. Management finds: It is more likely than not that the firm will realize the entire warranty deferred tax asset. • It is more likely than not that the firm will realize only $5,000 of the inventory deferred tax asset.
