Suppose a firm's tax rate is 25%.
1. What effect would a $10.92 million operating expense have on this year's earnings? What effect would it have on next year's earnings? (Select all the choices that apply.)
A. $10.92 million operating expense would be immediately expensed, increasing operating expenses by $10.92
million. This would lead to a reduction in taxes of 25%×$10.92 million=$2.73 million.
B. A $10.92 million operating expense would be immediately expensed, increasing operating expenses by $10.92 million. This would lead to an increase in taxes of 25%×$10.92 million=$2.73 million
C. Earnings would decline by $10.92 million−$2.73 million=$8.19 million. There would be no effect on next year's earnings.
D. Earnings would decline by $10.92 million−$2.73 million=$8.19 million. The same effect would be seen on next year's earnings
