Sorpon Corporation purchased equipment very late in 2011. Based on generous capital cost allowance rates provided in the Income Tax Act, Sorpon Corporation claimed CCA on its 2011 tax return but did not record any depreciation as the equipment had not yet been put into use. This temporary difference will reverse and cause taxable amounts of $25,000 in 2012, $30,000 in 2013, and $40,000 in 2014. Sorpon's accounting income for 2011 is $200,000 and the tax rate is 40% for all years. There are no future tax accounts at the beginning of 2011.
