Answer: $315,000 deferred tax asset

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount that Dwyer should record as a net deferred tax asset or liability for the year ended December 31, 2007 will be calculated thus:

= ($2400000 – $1500000) × 35%

= $900000 × 35%

= $900000 × 35/100

= $900000 × 0.35

= $315000.

Therefore, the answer is $315,000 deferred tax asset
