    27.2 Million

    Explanation:

    Taxable Income = pretax accounting income + warranty expense + depreciation expense - warranty costs were incurred - MACRS depreciation

    Taxable Income = 90 + 8 + 19 - 7 - 42

    Taxable Income = $ 68

    Centipede's income tax payable = Taxable Income*tax rate

    Centipede's income tax payable = 68*40%

    Centipede's income tax payable = $ 27.20 Million

    Therefore the answer c) 27.2 Million
