A coin has a probability of 1/4 for head, and is repeatedly
tossed until
we throw head. The successive results of the toss are independent
of each other.
What is the probability that the first time we throw head after an
odd number of toss?
Hint: Use the law of total probability and consider the event that
the
first toss is head is, and her complement, as conditioning
events.
Correct answer: 3/7

Question 3
Part a JKL Ltd bought an item of equipment at $4 million on 1 January 2017, it had estimated life of 8 years and residual value at $800,000. The equipment was depreciated on straight line basis. However, the Inland Revenue Department does not allow depreciation as deductible expenses. Instead, tax expenses of this type of asset can be claimed against income tax in the year of purchase and 20% per annum (on reducing balance basis) of tax base thereafter. The rate of income tax was taken as 25 %.
Required In respect of above items of equipment, calculate the deferred tax charge (i.e. tax expenses) or tax credit (i.e. tax benefit) in JKL Ltd’s books for the year ended 31 December 2019 through the journal entry. Note: Extract of income statement is not required
