If it results from permanent differences (e.g., non-deductible expenses), it would be permanent.### Summary Table:| Year | Book-tax Difference | Favorable or Unfavorable | Temporary or Permanent ||------|----------------------|-------------------------|------------------------|| 1 | $80,000 | Unfavorable | [Determination Required]|*Note: The actual determination of whether the difference is temporary or permanent would depend on additional details not provided in the scenario.*By identifying and understanding these differences, Seatac Corporation and its stakeholders can better comprehend the corporation's overall tax position.
