Required information

[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

2018 2019
Revenues $ 995 $ 1,055
Expenses 798 838
Pretax accounting income (income statement) $ 197 $ 217

  2. Expenses include $3 million insurance premiums each year for life insurance on key executives.
  3. Arndt sells one-year subscriptions to a weekly journal. Subscription sales collected and taxable in 2018 and 2019 were $38 million and $67 million, respectively. Subscriptions included in 2018 and 2019 financial reporting revenues were $35 million ($13 million collected in 2017 but not recognized as revenue until 2018) and $43 million, respectively. Hint: View this as two temporary differences—one reversing in 2018; one originating in 2018.
