Gire Company began operations at the beginning of 2019 at which time it purchased a depreciable asset for $60,000. For 2019 through 2022, the asset was depreciated on the straightline basis over a 4-year life (no residual value) for financial reporting. For income tax purposes, the asset was depreciated using MACRS (200%, 3-year life).
For 2019 through 2022, Gire reported pretax financial income and taxable income of the following amounts (the differences are due solely to the depreciation temporary differences):

Over the entire 4-year period, Gire was subject to an income tax of 30%, and no change in the tax rate had been enacted for future years.
