During its first year of operations, 2016, the Cocoa Company reported both a pretax financial and a taxable loss of $300,000. The income tax rate is 30% for the current and future years. Due to a sufficient backlog of sales orders, Cocoa did not establish a valuation allowance to reduce the $90,000 deferred tax asset.
