Accounting

Petrilli Ltd. had a taxable loss of $4,900,000 in 20X8 and a further loss of $270,000 in 20X9. The tax rate in 20X8 was 32% and in 20X9, 33%. All rates are enacted in the year to which they pertain. In the three years before the losses, the company had the following taxable income and tax rates:

20X5 20X6 20X7
Taxable income $ 1,724,800 $ 1,862,000 $ 863,600
Tax rate 36 % 38 % 40 %

There are no temporary differences other than those created by income tax losses. The company was struggling due to a competitor entering the market.

Required: 1. What is the amount of refund that will be claimed in 20X8?

2. What is the amount of the loss carryforward in 20X8?

3. Assuming that loss carryforward usage is probable in each year, prepare a journal entry for income tax in 20X8 and 20X9. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

4. Assuming that loss carryforward usage is not probable in each year, prepare a journal entry for income tax in 20X8 and 20X9. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
