View answer resolution
【Answer to question 1】C
【analysis】
C is correct. A decrease in the tax rate will result in a decrease in the previously reported amounts of deferred tax assets. That is, the value of the future tax assets, based on the new lower rate, is reduced for offsetting future tax payments.
A is incorrect. The change would affect not only the current year’s reported income tax expense but also any amounts previously established on the balance sheet.
B is incorrect. The value of the future benefits decreases, not increases.
【Answer to question 2】B
【analysis】
B is correct
If an increase in the LIFO reserve occurs, LIFO COGS will be higher than FIFO by the amount of the increase. With a lower COGS under FIFO, pretax income will be higher by $30,000. With a lower COGS under FIFO, after-tax income will be higher by $30,000 × (1 – 0.30) = $21,000.
A is incorrect. Tax rate × change in LIFO reserve = 0.30 × ($450,000 – $420,000) = $9,000
C is incorrect. Change in the LIFO reserve = $450,000 – $420,000 = $30,000
成功=时间+方法，自制力是这个等式的保障。世上无天才，高手都是来自刻苦的练习。而人们经常只看到“牛人”闪耀的成绩，其成绩背后无比寂寞的勤奋。小编相信，每天都在勤奋练习，即使是一点点的进步，大家一定可以成为人人称赞的“牛人”。
