Bronson Industries reported a deferred tax liability of $8 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, related to a temporary difference of $20 million. The tax rate was 40%. The temporary difference is expected to reverse in 2017 at which time the deferred tax liability will become payable. There are no other temporary differences in 2015–2017. Assume a new tax law is enacted in 2016 that causes the tax rate to change from 40% to 30% beginning in 2017. (The rate remains 40% for 2016 taxes.) Taxable income in 2016 is $30 million. Required: 1. Determine the effect of the change and prepare the appropriate journal entry to record Bronson’s income tax expense in 2016. 2. What adjustment, if any, is needed to revise retained earnings as a result of the change?
Hopkins Company has taken a position in its tax return to claim a tax credit of $70,000 (direct reduction in taxes payable) and has determined that it is "more likely than not" that the tax position will be sustained. The tax credit would be a direct reduction in current taxes payable. Hopkins believes the likelihood that a $70,000, $42,000, or $14,000 tax benefit will be sustained is 20%, 40%, and 40%, respectively. What is the amount of the additional projected liability that should be recognized?
