Income from installment sales of properties included in pretax accounting income in 2021 exceeded that reported for tax purposes by $7 million. The installment receivable account at year-end 2021 had a balance of $8 million (representing portions of 2020 and 2021 installment sales), expected to be collected equally in 2022 and 2023. Sherrod was assessed a penalty of $2 million by the Environmental Protection Agency for violation of a federal law in 2021. The fine is to be paid in equal amounts in 2021 and 2022. Sherrod rents its operating facilities but owns one asset acquired in 2020 at a cost of $112 million. Depreciation is reported by the straight-line method, assuming a four-year useful life. On the tax return, deductions for depreciation will be more than straight-line depreciation the first two years but less than straight-line depreciation the next two years ($ in millions):

1. Taxable income = $76 million

2.  Net income = $65.25 million

3-a. Net current Deferred Tax Asset = $1.95 million

3-b. Net current Deferred Tax Liability = $6.25 million

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question.

The explanation of the answers I now provided as follows:

1. Determine the amounts necessary to record income taxes for 2021, and prepare the appropriate journal entry.

1-a. Note: See the attached excel file for the determination of the amounts necessary to record income taxes for 2021 and the taxable income.

From the attached excel file, we have:

Taxable income = $76 million

1-b. The journal entries will look as follows:

Details                                                       Debit ($'m)             Credit ($'m)    

Tax expense (6.75 + 19 - 3)                           22.75

Deferred tax asset (25% * (1 + 13 - 2))             3.00

Deferred tax liability (25% * (7 + 20))                                              6.75

Tax payable (25% * 76)                                                                   19.00

(To record tax expense.)                                                                                

2. What is the 2021 net income?

This can be determined as follows:

Net income = Pretax accounting income - Tax expense = $88 million - $ 22.75 million = $65.25 million

3. Show how any deferred tax amounts should be classified and reported in the 2021 balance sheet.

3-a. The deferred tax amounts should be classified as follows.

From installment receivable in point (a) in the question:

Current deferred tax liability in 2022 (25%* ($4  / 2)) = $1

Noncurrent deferred tax liability in 2023 (25%* ($4 / 2)) = $1

From the depreciation in point (c.) in the question:

Noncurrent deferred tax liability (25%* ((24 + 24) - (14 + 7))) = $6.75

From the Warranty Expense/Payable in point (d.) of the question:

Current deferred tax asset (40%* 3) = $1.20

From the Acrrued Expense/Payable in point (e.) of the question:

Current deferred tax asset (25%* 7) = $1.75

Noncurrent deferred tax liability (25% * $6) = $1.50

3-b. These will be reported reported in the 2021 balance sheet as follows:

Sherrod, Inc.,

Balance Sheet (Partial)

As the Year Ended 31 December, 2021

Details                                                                         $'Million    

Assets:

Current Deferred Tax Asset (1.20 + 1.75)                      2.95

Current Deferred Tax Liability                                     -1.00  

Net current Deferred Tax Asset                                   1.95  

Liabilities:

Noncurrent Deferred Tax Asset (A)                              1.50

Noncurrent Deferred Tax Liabiity (1.0 + 6.75) (B)         7.75  

Net current Deferred Tax Liability (C = B - A)           6.25

explanation:

you have to put the parentheses like this:

in fact, you have to perform the operation inside parentheses first, and then proceed in order:
