fore farms reported a pretax operating loss of $137 million for financial reporting purposes in 2021. Contributing to the loss were a penalty of $5 million assessed by the environmental protection agency for violation of a federal law and paid in 2021, and b.) an estimated loss of $12 million from accruing a loss contingency. The loss will be tax deductible when paid in 2022. The enacted tax rate is 25%. There were no temporary differences at the beginning of the year and none originating in 2021 other than those described above. Taxable income in Fores's two previous years were as follows: 2019 $80 million 2020 $32 million. Required: 1. Prepare the journal entry to recognize the income tax benefit of teh net operating loss in 2021. Assume Fore will carry back its NOL to prior years. 2. Show the lower portion of the 2021 income statement that reports the income tax benefit of the net operating loss. 3. Prepare the journal entry to record income taxes in 2022 assuming pretax accounting income is $160 million.

Please help with all calculations. I provided a screenshot of the excel sheet as well. This is confusing.
