In 2015, Yard paid $5,000 in estimated state income tax. In May 2016, Yard received a state income tax refund of $2,000 for overpayment of its 2015 income tax. Yard was in the 35% marginal tax bracket in 2015 and in the 15% marginal tax bracket in 2016.
What are the tax effects of the 2016 payment to the customer and the collection of the state income taxes overpaid?
