  • The bookkeeper never included deferred income taxes in the financial statements. 
  • You believe that as a result of pending tax legislation, the current 40% income tax rate will be decreased for 2016 to 35% and you are uncertain which tax rate to apply in determining deferred taxes
  • You remember that estimated costs are not deductible for tax purposes.
  • The allowance for doubtful accounts is an estimate and the actual bad debt expense incurred for the year was only $125.
  • Included on the trial balance is $200 of meals and entertainment expense.
  • The rental equipment has a 7-year MACRS life for tax purposes.
  • The intangibles should be amortized over 15 years for tax purposes.
  • The trial balance includes $250 for a parking ticket.
  • Tax law requires revenue for related party transactions to be recognized at fair value.
