A taxpayer is paying alternative minimum tax this year. The AMT is primarily due to timing differences, resulting in the creation of a minimum tax credit. The taxpayer will apply the minimum tax credit

A) against the current year's AMT liability.
B) against a future year's AMT liability.
C) as a carryback to the preceding two years.
D) against a future year's regular tax liability when regular tax exceeds the tentative minimum tax.


D) against a future year's regular tax liability when regular tax exceeds the tentative minimum tax.

To avoid double taxation on timing differences, the law allows a minimum tax credit to be applied against regular tax in a future year when the taxpayer does not have an AMT liability.
