Use the information for Jenny Corporation in E18-9, and assume that the company reports accounting income of $155,000 in each of 2012 and 2013 and the warranty expenditures occurred as expected. No reversing difference exists other than the one identified in E18-9.
In BE Jenny Corporation recorded warranty accruals as at December 31, 2011, in the amount of $150,000. This reversing difference will cause deductible amounts of $50,000 in 2012, $35,000 in 2013, and $65,000 in 2014. Jenny’s accounting income for 2011 is $135,000 and the tax rate is 25% for all years. There are no future tax accounts at the beginning of 2011.
