The corporate tax rate in 2017 was 34%. At the end of 2017, Congress reduced the corporate tax rate to 21% effective for 2018.

a. Prepare page 1 of the 2017 Form 1120, computing the corporations taxable income and tax liability.

b. Determine the corporations deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability situation, and then complete the income statement and balance sheet to reflect proper GAAP accounting ASC 740. Because of the enacted tax rate change, deferred assets and liabilities at the end of 2017 will need to be valued at 21%. Use the balance sheet information to prepare Schedule L of the 2017 Form 1120.

c. Prepare the 2017 Schedule M-3 for Form 1120. d. Prepare a schedule that reconciles the corporations effective tax rate to the statutory 34% tax rate. This schedule will need a line to reflect the change in the future tax rate.
