Answer #1

a. MWC's 2015 taxable income

2015 Net operating Income 181,500

Less: Remaining balance of 2012 NOL (17,750)

2013 NOL carryforward (26,750)

Taxable Income for 2015 137,000

b. If MWC does not elect to forgo any NOL carrybacks,

its taxable income in 2017 is 432,500. 28,000 NOL for 2016 is used to

carryback to 2015, so there is no NOL to deduct in 2017.

c. 2017 Net operating income 432,500

Less: 2016 NOL carryover (28,000)

Taxable income for 2017 404,500

The NOL carryover from 2016 creates a 28,000 temporary favorable

book-tax difference
