At the end of 2020, Payne Industries had a deferred tax asset account with a balance of $95 million attributable to a temporary book-tax difference of $380 million in a liability for estimated expenses. At the end of 2021, the temporary difference is $288 million. Payne has no other temporary differences and no valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset. Taxable income for 2021 is $684 million and the tax rate is 25%. Required: 1. Prepare the journal entry(s) to record Payne’s income taxes for 2021, assuming it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized in full. 2. Prepare the journal entry(s) to record Payne’s income taxes for 2021, assuming it is more likely than not that only one-fourth of the deferred tax asset ultimately will be realized.
