Sagot :

Answer:

b. $80,000

Explanation:

The computation of the deferred portion of its provision for income taxes should be given below:

= $300,000 ÷ 3  years

= $100,000

Now

= 30% of $100,000 + 25% of $100,000 + 25% of $100,000

= $30,000 + $25,000 + $25,000

= $80,000

Therefore the option b is correct
