operations of $800,000 and taxable income of $500,000. The book-tax

difference relating to depreciation, an unfavorable temporary
difference of $80,000 due to an increase in the reserve for bad
debts, and a $180,000 favorable permanent difference from the
receipt of life insurance proceeds. Problem 17-75 Part d d. Provide
