    The correct answer is C that is $354,000

    Explanation:

    The present earnings and the profit for the year 20X3 of the Corporation is computed as:

    Present earnings and the profit for the year 20X3 of the Corporation = Taxable Income - Federal income tax - Entertainment expense + Deferred gain on sale of installment + Tax exempt income

    Where

    Taxable Income is $500,000

    Federal income tax is $17,000

    Entertainment expense is $2,000

    Deferred gain on sale of installment is $25,000

    Tax exempt income is $1,000

    Putting the values in the above formula:

    = $500,000 - $170,000 - $2,000 + $25,000 + $1,000

    = $354,000.
