    Answer: $480,000 is the taxable income for year 5 reported by Paring report.

    Given:

    Pretax financial income = $550,000

    Current tax expense = $144,000

    Effective income tax rate is 30%

    Taxable income is computed as:

    Taxable income = Tax expense : Current tax rate

    Taxable income = $144,000 : 30%

    Taxable income = $480,000
