Explanation of Solution
The income tax expense of A in 2019 without the tax rate change was $20 million but after the tax rate has been reduced from 40% to 30% it reduced to $19.4 million in 2019 because the tax on future taxable amount of $6 million needs to be adjusted to $0.6 million
So, the income tax expense after the tax rate changed in 2019 is $19.4 million
