Facts:  Highcare, Inc. is a calendar year entity that began business this year. Highcare provides nursing services to cancer patients. The services it provides are both based in traditional science and holistic medicine. To support the nursing services, Highcare purchases and dispenses medical marijuana to its patients.

Also, Highcare purchases and sells a line of recreational marijuana products for its patients and their families at its facility’s store. Highcare capitalizes only the costs associated with acquiring marijuana in its inventory costs. No other costs are capitalized into inventory. For tax purposes, Highcare's inventory capitalization and COGS are properly determined.

In Highcare’s state (California), selling medical and recreational marijuana is legal. This year, Highcare’s general financial results for each of its business lines were as follows:

Highcare’s management recently learned that, although medical and recreational marijuana are legal enterprises in California, they are not under federal law because marijuana is a controlled substance within the meaning of schedule I and II of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. ch. 13 § 801 et seq.) . It is uncertain about how to compute its federal taxable income. Specifically, Highcare is concerned that its marijuana-related deductions, which are generally allowable under Code section 162, may be prohibited by federal law.

Issue: Based on the financial data provided, what will Highcare’s taxable income be for this year?
