Answer:

a. $495,000

Explanation:

Data provided

Federal taxable income = $500,000

State A income tax expense = $45,000

Depreciation Modification = $300,000, $250,000

The computation of taxable income is shown below:-

Federal taxable income + State A income tax expense - Depreciation Modification

= $500,000 + $45,000 - ($300,000 - $250,000)

= $545,000 - $50,000

= $495,000
