(New Corporate income tax rate has been mentioned as "21% on all taxable income" as per the recent change. Leave no answer blank. Enter zero if applicable.)

b. Year 1 is 2018. What is SCC Tax Liability in Year 2?

Solutions

Expert Solution

b. The tax liability of SCC corporation in year 2 is as follows:

Taxable income from operations $ 20,000

less 80% of taxable income ($ 16,000)

Taxable income for year 2 $ 4,000

Tax liability for year 2 at the rate of 21% $840

Before 2018, the loss from the previous year could be deducted as much as the income of the current year. However, after 2018, only 80% of the taxable income can be deducted, being $16,000.

The balance $14,000 ($30,000 - $16,000) can be carried forward and deducted in the future years subject to the limitation of 80%.
