Answer:

The answer is: $41,000

Explanation:

The deferred portion of its provision for income taxes can be calculated by = ending deferred tax liability - ending deferred tax asset

  • differed tax  liability = ($80,000 x 30%) + ($70,000 x 25%) +($50,000 x 25%)= $24,000 + $17,500 + $12,500 = $54,000
  • deferred tax asset = ($10,000 x 30%) + ($15,000 x 25%) + ($25,000 x 25%)= $3,000 + $3,750 + $6,250 = 13,000

Deferred portion of its provision for income taxes = $54,000 - $13,000 = $41,000
