Question:
Faro Inc. began operating on January 1, 2011. At the end of the first year of operations, Faro reported $400,000 income before income taxes on its income statement but only $320,000 taxable income on its tax return. Analysis of the $80,000 difference revealed that $45,000 was a permanent difference and $35,000 was a temporary tax liability difference related to a current asset. The enacted tax rate for 2011 and future years is 35%.
