The accounting income of Wildhorse Corporation and its taxable income for the years 2023 to 2026 are as follows:
Year Accounting Income Taxable Income Tax Rate
2023 $465,000 $302,000 25%
2024 430,000 304,000 30%
2025 395,000 305,000 30%
2026 471,000 647,000 30%
The change in the tax rate from 25% to 30% was not enacted until early in 2024.
Accounting income for each year includes an expense of $49,000 that will never be deductible for tax purposes. The remainder of the difference between accounting income and taxable income in each period is due to one reversing difference for the depreciation of property, plant, and
equipment. No deferred taxes existed at the beginning of 2023.
