What is the amount of any unused credits carried forward to 2020?

Answer 1

2020 carried forward 37,200

All the previous year carryover were used.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 141,000 credit allowed

We use the 99,000 from previous period

Leaving us with: 42,000 of tax credit for this year

Now, as the company generated tax credit for 79,200 during the year

79,200 - 42,000 = 37,200 carried forward to 2020 as are considered unused during 2019
