Dollin Inc. is incorporated under Virginia law and has its corporate headquarters in Richmond. Dollin is a distributor; it purchases tangible goods from manufacturers and sells the goods to retailers. It has a branch office through which it sells goods in the United Kingdom and owns 100 percent of a French corporation (French Dollin) through which it sells goods in France. Dollin’s financial records provide the following information for the year:

Before-tax net income from sales:
Domestic sales $ 967,900
UK sales (foreign source income) 415,000
$ 1,382,900
Dividend income:
Brio Inc. $ 8,400
French Dollin (foreign source income) 33,800
  • Dollin pays state income tax in Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. All three states tax their apportioned share of Dollin’s net income from worldwide sales. Because Virginia is Dollin’s commercial domicile, it also taxes Dollin’s U.S. source (but not foreign source) dividend income net of any federal dividends-received deduction. The states have the following apportionment factors and tax rates:
    Apportionment Factor Tax Rate
    Virginia 43.19 % 6.00 %
    North Carolina 11.02 % 7.75 %
    South Carolina 39.52 % 5.00 %
  • Dollin paid $149,200 income tax to the United Kingdom.
  • Dollin elects to claim the foreign tax credit rather than to deduct foreign income taxes.
    Brio Inc. is a taxable U.S. corporation. Dollin owns 2.8 percent of Brio’s stock.
  • Dollin has owned 100 percent of the stock of French Dollin for 10 years. None of French Dollin's earnings are considered GILTI or subpart F income.
  • Earnings of the UK branch are not considered FDII.
  1. Compute Dollin’s state income tax for Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
  2. Compute Dollin’s federal income tax. Assume that Dollin paid the state taxes during the year, and no state income tax is allocable to foreign source income.

MegaCorp's corporate headquarters, built in 1970, has asbestos in its insulation. The company's financial statements reflect a $5 million asset retirement obligation (ARO) for the eventual remediation of the asbestos. This ARO was initially estimated and recorded in 2005 when the company adopted FIN 45, Accounting for conditional Asset Retirement obligations. (note: amounts recorded for ARO are generally estimated because it is not always possible to know how much remediating asbestos - or other like issues - will ultimately cost)...

Baden Corporation entered into a lease agreement for 100 photocopy machines for its corporate headquarters.

After the 5-year lease term, the corporation can purchase each copier for $1,000, when the anticipated fair value is $2,500. Jerry Suffolk, the financial vice president, thinks the financial statements must recognize the lease agreement as a finance lease because of the bargain purchase option. The controller, Diane Buchanan, disagrees:...
