Loon, Inc. reported taxable income of $600,000 in 20X3 and paid federal income taxes of $202,000. Not included in the company's computation of taxable income is tax-exempt interest of $30,000, disallowed meals and entertainment expenses of $15,000, and disallowed expenses related to the tax-exempt income of $4,000. Loon deducted depreciation of $200,000 on its tax return. Under the alternative (E&P) depreciation method, the deduction would have been $80,000. Compute the company's current E&P for 20X3.

What will be an ideal response?


$529,000

$600,000 + $30,000 tax-exempt interest + $120,000 excess depreciation ? $202,000 taxes ? $15,000 M&E ? $4,000 disallowed expenses = $529,000.
