The company treasurer, Randy Patey, believes that as a result of pending legislation, the current 40% income tax rate will be decreased for 2019 to 35% and is uncertain which tax rate to apply in determining deferred taxes for 2018. Patey also is uncertain which differences should be included in that determination and has solicited your help. Your accounting group provided you the following information.
