Solution B.

Because Camco had an NOL for the first year, it cannot deduct any of the $5,000 contribution but can only carry the contribution forward to the second year. In the second year, Camco's charitable contribution deduction is limited to 10% of taxable income after the NOL carryforward deduction. Consquently, Camco is allowed an $11,860 chartiable contribution deduction ($10,000 current year contribution + $1,860 carryforward),and its taxable income is $106,740.

Income from operations $210,600

NOL carryforward deduction (92,000)

Taxable income before charitable contribution 118,600

Charitable contribution deduction (11,860)

Taxable income $106,740
