Respuesta :

Answer:

$96,000

Explanation:

Straight line depreciation = $4000000/5

Straight line depreciation = $800000

Deferred tax liability 2020 = ($800,000 - $800,000)*20% = $0

Deferred tax liability 2021 = ($1,280,000 - $800,000)*20% = $96,000

Net deferred tax liability  = $0 + $96,000 = $96,000

So, the net deferred tax liability that should be reflected on Lehman's balance sheet at December 31, 2021 will be $96,000.
