Answer: $68,000
Explanation:
Let us assume that we are given a tax rate of 34% to use in computing the question. Therefore, Purple Rose's current income tax expense or benefit will be:
Pre-tax book income = $500,000
Less: Tax depreciation = $300,000
Net Income = $500,000 - $300,000 = $200,000
Current income tax expenses at 34% will then be:
= 34% × Net income
= 34/100 × $200,000
= $68,000
