On May 10, 2019, Horan Company purchased equipment for 25,000. The equipment has an estimated service life of 5 years and zero residual value. Assume that the straight-line depreciation method is used. Required: Compute the depreciation expense for 2019 for each of the following four alternatives: 1. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest day. (Use 12 months of 30 days each and round the daily depreciation rate to 2 decimal places.) 2. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest month. Assets purchased in the first half of the month are considered owned for the whole month. 3. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest whole year. Assets purchased in the first half of the year are considered owned for the whole year. 4. Horan records one-half years depreciation expense on all assets purchased during the year.
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?
