ASSIGNMENT 1: BOOK-TAX DIFFERENCES

There is a problem in the 2023 version of the text on page 16-39. It is problem 64 and it involves an entity called Timpanogos. If you have an earlier version of the text it will be a different problem number but will still be at the tail end of chapter 16 problems.

IF YOU ACCESS THE 2022 VERSION, IT MAY BE ON THE SAME PAGE..IF NOT, LOOK FOR THE TIPANOGOS FACT PATTERN.

The facts will allow you to reconcile book-to-tax income in the same manner as Exhibit 16-8 in the textbook.

Use the format from Exhibit 16-8, where you have four columns to reconcile book to tax, with adjustments for debits and credits.

THERE IS NO NEED TO DO THE SCHEDULE M-1. JUST DO THE RECONCILIATION IN THE FORM SHOWN IN THE EXHIBIT
