Prepare the journal entries for the years 2010 to 2014 to record income tax expense and the effects of the net operating loss carrybacks and carry forwards, assuming Synergetic Company uses the carryback provision. All income and losses relate to normal operations. (In recording the benefits of a loss carry forward, assume that no valuation account is deemed necessary.)
