Answer:

attached below

Explanation:

Given data :

Deferred tax asset account = $72800 at the end of 2019

single cumulative temporary difference = $364,000

At the end of 2020

single cumulative temporary difference = $416,000

Taxable income for 2020 = $762000

tax rate = 20% for all years

A) attached below

deferred income tax asset = $( 416,000 - 364,000 ) * 20%

                                            = $10400

Income tax payable = $(762,000 ) * 20% = $152,400

Income tax expense = ( income tax payable - deffered income tax )

                                   = $152400 - $10400 = $142,000
