year 2010:
Taxable income = -700,000
Carry forward used = 0
EBT after forward applied = 0
Unused carryable amount = 700,000
Year 2011:
Taxable income = -500,000
Carry forward used = 0
EBT after forward applied = 0
Unused carryable amount = 700,000 + 500,000 = 1, 200,000
2012:
Taxable income = -200,000
Carry forward used = 0
EBT after forward applied = 0
Unused carryable amount = 1,200,000 + 200,000 = 1,400,000
2013:
Taxable income = 800,000
Carry forward used = 800,000
EBT after forward applied = 0
Unused carryable amount = 1,400,000 - 800,000 = 600,000
2014:
Taxable income = 1000,000
Carry forward used = 6000,000
EBT after forward applied = 400,000
Unused carryable amount = 0
Tax liability = EBT * tax rate
Tax liability = 400,000 * 0.4 = 160,000
