    Explanation:

    Year end - December 31,2018 (first account year)

    Pretax Income - $640,000

    Interest expenses ($20,000)

    Excess warranty expense add back $45,000

    Excess depreciation deducted ($120,000)

    Taxable income = $545,000

    Tax rate = 40%

    Income tax expense for 2018 = $545,000 * 40%

    =$218,000
